Bloody wheel manufacturers winge!

Christ almighty!

I though there was a recession?

I've had one "No we can't send you drawings, you send us one" so I did, and that was the last I heard.
I've had two zero response.
And one "Yes we can" then nada after two following e-mails.



Compomotive are excellent at getting back with info, but unfortunately don't do a 13" split rim.

And a big thanks to Joachim Westerman for his help, and advice, and time on the telephone.
Unfortunately his Lurvely Rial wheels won't fit my application.

I know what wheels I realy want, but after being told I could, the Guy seems to have vanished off the face of the earth! Still, I was warned.

Sorry for the moan. Just wanted to get it off my chest.

A set of polished lightweight 13'' magnesium alloys (as fitted to the original R400/ R500) would look good on yours Mick (IMHO.

Mick, Is it Image? Speak to Harry, he'll sort it. He was very good with the awkward request I made on the P4 wheels. Took ages, but a great job in the end.

I'd love to see some HTN Prinz wheels on a Caterham

Last time I spoke to Mike Barnby (in the past couple of weeks) he told me a German customer had a set of his MB R500 wheels (for a Mini) with ali centres polished up so the whole wheel was polished and said it looked pretty amazing. He has a set of ali centres as I recall. Might suit yours?

Either way, I hope you get sorted - fantastic project you have going on at the moment

Cheers

Thanks for the comments.
I've decided, as of Monday I'll start using the telephone.
E-mail just doesn't seem to work.
I also have a feeling someone didn't look properly at my CAD drawings, and when they saw Caterham in my enquiry, told me the wheels would fit without looking at the dimensions. Hopefully I'm wrong, and they're just busy.
But now it's gone quiet.
Ho hum......
