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.

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.
