Several of us have had some sort of contact with Weller, I cant remember the exact figures but it was something like a run of at least 100 wheels, and I dont know anyone willing to stump up that sort of cash, I also contacted all the suppliers I know to see if they wanted to be an agent for Weller wheels......no-one did :(

Nice ones! What do you think about white letter tyres, eg. BF Goodrich or Cooper Cobras? Think they'll look the part! :)

Hi..New to the site, having just bought my first tranny ! Ive got a swb 2000 Mk 5... which i,ve strated to make my mark on. Was originally an ex Scunthorpe council van ! in lovely BT grey..but with only 49000 on the clock and an LPG conversion..its so far been a good buy...7 weeks later and 62000 on the clock ( yep..i,m a courier )..its now 2 tone grey ( gunmetal on the bottom half and light grey above) with clear lense indicators at the front, clear side indicators and blue xenon bulbs...cant you just tell i was a 70s kid with a poster of a custom tranny on the bedroom wall !! Anyway, talking of wheels...i really want to put a set of either chrome or grey modular wheels on the van..the kind you normally see on Land rover defenders...u know..a row of circular holes around the wheel..but have tried all the places i used to get my 4x4 bits from, only to be told that the wheel fitments all wrong..so now i see i can get 8 spoke weller styles ? Are these a standard fitting? Like the site so far..i,ll get some pics posted.Cheers for now
