I've got these wheels and used this advert to replicate the wheel centres!

Not really an ad but thought I would post it here anyway ........The Hot Car magazine modded Mini as featured on the front cover below back in April 1968. It went on display at the Racing Car Show in London and the object was to use as many as possible of the many bolt on items available for Minis at that time !
Also Build a Mini Jem kit car for under £350.......

Hope you don't mind me adding one from South Africa here. It's the fabled Clubman GTS :

Would have loved to lived in this era, I would have bought so many minis, so cheap!

An original ad for the GKN Silverstone wheels in 10" size here in Practical Motorist Magazine - May 1976.

12" versions of the GKN wheel were used in 1275GT Challenge racing and are now much sought after.
