Thinking of putting 15 X 6 inch Minilites on my Tiger. Does anyone have pictures of a Tiger with these rims?
 
I don't know if any of these are actually real Minilite brand wheels but when I did a Google image search for "sunbeam tiger" it seemed like every third pic or so had eight spoke "mini" style wheels.


PC.

There are a lot of manufacturers of this style wheel, Minilite being the original and in my research the more expenive. There are subtle differences when you see the wheels next to each other but not enough to warrent the price difference in my opinion.

Minilite
MWS Minilight
Minilife
GB Wheels
Panasport
KN Minator

I had a set made in Italy but never knew the name.

Not sure how many companies make all sizes.
