Question about WMIK wheels???

<< < (4/5) > >>

sMUDge:
A WMIK  ;)



A close up of the alloy  :)




They do look nice, (be better in black though?!!)  However some "special" units do not like them as if they break they can not be repaired/welded as easy as the old steel versions? 

If that's their only fault, I'll have a set please . . . . . in black  :lol:

Range Rover Blues:
Too many Colin McRae fans in the purchasing dept ;)

Used to have a similar thing in product development at Ford, the durability cars would often have steel rims in place of alloys because they got bust too often.  IIRC police cars had steels for the same reason.

Disco Matt:
I was just thinking the same thing - they look like gravel-spec rally wheels.

Maybe that's the idea, 95% of them are being used on gravel/sand in Iraq & Afghanistan  :)

diesel_jim:
They're available from Silverline, called "Blindo" wheels

I've emailed them for a price, but as usual in the UK, no-one  has bothered to reply to me.  :rolleyes:


Nice looking wheels though, would be nice in a 16x8 instead of a 7",although they do different offsets.
