wheel wanted...and question.

I have bought a set of wheels which have come off a JPE car. They are also found on SLRs and early R series(so I believe). They are 13 by 6 and 13 x 7 or 8 inches, split rim and five spoke. Could someone please confirm which wheels these are and hopefully where I can find a spare wheel for the front. Thanks.

Sound like the wheels generally known as Superlite R wheels. Came either plain or rolled rim. Originally three piece then a few months later converted to two piece by welding the rims together to reduce leaks. Cast ally centres, spun ally outers. Pretty light in comparison to cast wheels.

 

Superseded by Barnby magnesium three peice wheels after a couple of years.
