Ok I got this car and it had the alloy rims on it and I contacted the original buyer of the car and he say's that he bought the car out of Decari Motors Montreal with these rims. They are even listed on the bill of sale as optional alluminium rims but I'm thinking that it was just a dealer option. I have only seen one other TR7 with them and it was also bought from the same dealer. So, here is the question. Has anyone ever seen these wheels before and or have any info about them?

Those are "Cosmic" wheels -- they are British made. Here they are on a page of TR8 wheels. https://members.aol.com/gaknutson/TR8wheels2.html
Triumph/British Leyland dealers were notorious for dealer installed options. Even in the era of the TR3, many popular options were actually dealer installed (fender mirrors, luggage racks, radios.)
My TR8 has 100+ Octavas alloys from the original dealer. Too bad, because I'd rather have the stock TR8 alloys.
