Wheel Types

I'm after a set of 13" wheels but I don't know what the styles look like. Anyone enlighten me? Any others I've missed? Pictures? (I know those with a thumbsup.gif)

My wheels are 13x6 K&N Minators, colouring referred to as Black/Highlite. K&N Minators are the make used by Caterham themselves. Mine came via the efforts Rob Morris, the only difference being that 'Caterham' isn't stamped into the rim. Nowadays all minilight/superlight/minator style wheels are available in alloy only but the superlight (or was it minilite) were originally constructed (back in the 60's) in magnesium.

 

Talking of magnesium, you could add Dymag to the list, a set of black powder coated ones were fitted to that cosworth powered seven for sale earlier in the year (can't remember any more that that at the moment). The centres of the R500s are magnesium also

 

Can confirm that Ian Balson's are Superlight rims (he lives just up the road), his are fitted to an HPC (de-dion).
