Default Help identifying alloy wheels? - RESOLVED

Hi, a couple of members have this wheel. But, I am having trouble finding out what they are called so I can find them. Anyone know what this wheel is?

I first thought Montreal but it has 9 spokes and the wheel in your photo has 10 spokes.

Checked my XK8/XKR catalogues and accessory brochures but can't find that one which suggests it's not from the Jaguar range.

I don't recognize it either as a standard Jaguar XK8/R wheel. Your best bet is to remove the wheel from the car and check on the inside of the spokes for any markings or part numbers. Check if there is a spacer. Check for evidence of machining on the hub. Take pictures and plug whatever you find in your favorite search engine.

Best of luck, keep us posted.

Check out this note (#1) from Salo - he can probably tell you....Not exact but damn close...

Looking at your posted picture, I can see at the bottom of the rim, there are at least 2 markings within the 3 bottom rim bolts.

What do those markings say? ? ? I bet you can get an answer from Google...

Good luck!

Well, the company that made these has been out of business for a while. The wheel is The Stern ST-1 Face III Beast-Hyper Silver #11788. Too bad. I guess my search will continue with another design.
