He doesn't! Lotus Carlton/Omega wheels aren't quite the same as nothing like Bob's.  ;)  ;D  ;D

Lotus Carlton (off to find a picture of Bob's car  ;))

Although I have a soft spot for the L/Carlton I think Bob's car looks the part 8-) 8-) - would you really want anything else? :y

Although they were originally going to go on a Carlton, as said they are not original Lotus Carlton wheels. They are Azev A's and my car's previous owner (Big Rod) had intended to fit them to his Carlton but decided they really suited the Omega. I agreed and opted to buy the car with the Azev's as opposed to the Irmscher wheels that I could have had. :y

Are Lotus Carlton "rear" wheels different from the front?? ::) ::) ::) :D ;)

If they are, what is the point in just having two rear wheels? ::) ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D

Trust you Lizzie!! ::) ;D

However, he might be right. My rear wheels are considerably wider than the fronts so maybe that's his point. :-/
