Anyone recognize this rim. It reads 5JX13 and made in England. I seem to remember it was used on a Midget for one year in the early seventies. Rick

Aka Rostyle wheels. Look nice with chrome wheel rims. Sonewhere68-70 midget.
 
That's not the Midget early Rostyle. That appears to be an alloy wheel of similar style, but the Midget was a stamped steel wheel, as pictured. Notice the 4 spokes in the center as well. I think the one pictured is a Reliant Scimitar "Princess Anne" wheel. Rostyle wheel on left.

Rick,
Those rims look nice and I bet they would really restore well!

Gerard I was close at least. Not quite a cigar.
 
You're right Rut. They would look great with gloss black. I'm lucky they don't seem to have any curb rash. Gonna put them on ebay as is I think. Rick
