Post by: Nev on January 21, 2013, 17:12:08
Whilst looking elsewhere, I tripped over the Azev alloy wheels, and eir centre caps look rather similar to the ones on our OZ alloys, ......

   Well spotted! They certainly look the right sort - diameter would be the clincher. Since I posted the request about the wheel centres, I've had a set turned from solid aluminium.They look great on the car but need the AC logo to finish them off properly. I'm now trying to find a firm able to make them - it's possible that Azev might be able to help on that one!

Azev might not, because you didn`t get yours from them, but you can always ask!
   You could try to find an engineering firm with a CNC mill that could cut the logo into your covers, although I couldn`t hazard a guess at the costs.

I´ve seen a set of rims for sale with centre caps that look very similar to the Brooklands Ace rims. They were fitted to a BMW E36 series, model year´92. See http://en.bildelsbasen.se/?link=item&post_id=22554970. I´ve no idea if these rims were standard for that particular model. Hope this info. helps.

They look spot on,  I already have a spare set, perhaps the club should buy these ones?
