Wanted - Amil type alloys

Hi All,
I haven't had much (any) success hunting out a set of the steel rims I fancy. I was also tempted by a set of the Amil 6 'petal' type alloys that are fitted to Mk1 R5 TX's for my GTL.

Does anyone have a set gathering dust in a shed etc. I know these need specific wheelnuts so a set of those to go with them would be handy! Centre caps and tyres would be a bonus. I'm happy to refurb a set if they are sound but tired looking. Please PM me if you can help or I'm on 07765 713967!

Regards
 
Wheels Picture

Hi All, I thought I should add a picture of the type I'm after. Shamelessly cribbed from Peppers earlier wanted post about alloys. I don't think they are usually all black!

I 'may' have the set of wheel nuts that go with those wheels ;)
 
Amil Wheelnuts

Hi Pepper,
If you do have the nuts I'd happily buy them from you. I've at least seen some of these sets of wheels for sale in places like ebay Fr but they never have the nuts with them. Feel free to reply or PM if you find the set in the garage or whatever...
 
I would like the fergat (?) wheels. I find them sometimes on lbc, but nobody answers me when I propose to send a courier to take them... Is it so a big work to make a package?
When I will go to Thenay I should bring another car only for the spares I would like to collect...
 
snailshed, I was thinking about this earlier...

Y'know how puddlefluff has a R5 that he wants rid of, I reckon it *could* have the wheels you want on it. The R5 is an '83 TL by the sounds of it, I think that would probably be a Le Car 2 which if so would have the correct wheels. Might be worth a PM anyway.
 
I may well have a set of wheelnuts if they are the same as the Gordini. Might be able to part exchange for a TX wheel center for the Amil wheels if you can find a spare one.
 
Wheels sorted!

Hi All, Thanks for keeping looking for me. I managed to track down a set of Fergats which I've bought and fitted instead, though the car is now off road for Winter...
 
Fergat are the best for me...
I am waiting for the mechanic help to change both driveshafts and a balljoint, after that I will change my tyres (and try the 145 ones instead of the 135 I am driving with since I bought the car) and fit the fergat wheels I restored last month...
 
I'm after a set of Fergat wheels for BB, If anyone sees a set for sale, could they let me know xx

Hi, I am late to the party but do you still have a set 9f wheel nuts for the Amil alloys please? Long shot I know but what's to lose. Thank you. Lee
