Does anyone know where the correct type can bd found. I am regularly checking ebay but the rootes ones are different to the mg and ford types. Thanks

Just to clarify, are you referring to the chromed surround & retainer, or just the centres themselves with the 'Talbot' emblem on?G.

OK: Club probably has some s/hand ones, did sell a set (for a Hunter GLS) a few weeks back, but going to stores at the weekend, so will check to see if any more around.
Cheers. G.

Ah Paul, sorry, I forgot . Going again at end of month. Will put on the list. I have found one at home, but not good condition. I'm intending to obtain just the centre's & the sprung clips on the back. No emblems. Cheers & apols. G

Hey, they don't look too bad. I'm still going to look for some oe ones for Paul when in Banbury Monday, but as the acrylic centres are hard to get now, those stickers are an option!
Looks like you need some nice domed wheel nuts to finish the look of the wheel off thought jabe1807
Very hard to find the correct chamfer to get a snug fit. The standard wheel nuts do not bed completely into the Rostyle and so can't be used. I don't think club has any unfortunately. Cheers. G.

G, I found my email address was out of date. Sorted now.
If you have already tried to p.m. me it would have been lost. Sorry for any inconvenience.
Thanks

Hello,

Interesting thread.

I'm on the hunt for, amongst other things, three wheel centres to complete my set, so if you stumble over any more Glen I'll be very interested.

Thanks

Mike
