Title: Senator wheels
Post by: venom on 25 July 2010, 16:26:53

Does anyone know if the wheels off a 3.0 24V would fit an Omega?

Yup  :y

Notice a few NI Omegas run on Senator style alloys, they look good. Pig to clean though  :(

Father T had a Carlton Estate years ago, and muggins here was sent out to clean it. Front brake dust was a nightmare!

That said they must have been made well, as when cleaned up, corrosion was minimal.

The later ones with gold tint still look good today  :)

There are 4 in my shed you can have for beer money if you want them  ;). You'd have to arrange collection though. The only problem with them though is that I (stupidly) trusted a wheel refurb place to refurb them. They used a course grit to blast them, so the surface isn't smooth like they should be.
Beware though, that the Xspoke alloys come in 2 very slightly different designs. There's a code on them to identify them ..... to long ago now for me to remember which is which, but all mine are the same style/design.  :y

They've been in the shed for years so I'm unlikely to ever need them......How about a nominal £20 ?  ;)
