Not sure how this will be received or even if it's in the right section but  . . .

I was searching the forum for an Omega "wheel ID guide" & could not find anything comprehensive. . . .so .  .

Just a thought  . . .& after seeing Terberts photos of wheels from the Wycombe meet. I thought maybe an Oofer who has

both the knowledge & a bit of time , could compile a guide of all the different types of wheels, with name/model  fitted to

the Omega through it's history .

I can identify most of them on sight , but many members may not be able to. It would also help when buying an Omega of

a certain year & model ,to know what wheels it came with originally.

Gonna be bit time consuming for someone to search out all the photos of these , but I'm sure it would be a worthwhile

addition to the Maintenance guide or FAQ section 

As I sadly do not have the PC skills to do this myself  . .      Anyone up for it ?

Crack on then

Start with Terb's pics, and I'm sure somebody would help out with getting pics uploaded for you

I would do TB  . . willingly  . . . but as said in the last line of my original post ,  my chances of sourcing the pics , then

shrinking & loading them  . . .along with the required text   . . .  is ZERO . . .  actually even less than that .    I'm usless with a capital C  on a computer

It's a similar  comparison with you trying to play "Jessica"  on a guitar after one lesson  . . .yes I'm that US

Can you tell, for example, by the pics of wheels I put up in the Wycombe meet, what actual model of Omega they come from originally
Well out of my league.....but if anyone wants the pics, I'll mail them to you

Got a feeling Ian took a load of wheel shots...not sure if at Oxford or Wycombe a while back

Yes .  .most of them   . . .   although some of those pics you posted  are non standard VX wheels 

Talking VX only here      also  no FL  CDX wheel in your pics though

Splendid  . . . . could  you add the Irmy Sportstar &  Irmscher MFL  MV6  & the early PFL alloy to that ?

Nice one. 

I asked Terbert to avoid taking a photo of the only wheel on my car with dodgy lacquer and what does he do, takes a photo of that wheel.    How cruel of you Terbs. 
I'll have to get it refurbed now.

Sure no problem... Not 100% but isn't that PFL wheel off a CDX

Not sure myself  . . . I didn't say I knew them all     thats the point of this guide 

Also the MFL  MV6  Irmscher wheel  from terbs list could be added

  My dear Alan...I am sure these clever devils will do a bit of photoshopping to make the wheel look top dollar if they need the pic
Its a good idea, though. But when Al asked me earlier, I had to admit I could not tell one wheel from another. As long as there was one on each corner, I was satisfied
