See what I mean, have seen a few on here on 7x13 superlights and in my opinion they just look wrong, but a set of aftermarket 70's alloys just look so right...love them!

Hi, Any one know the correct colour for Marina Steel wheels?
Not the halfords wheel silver! Which is far to bright, more of a darker silver!
Cheers,
Paul.

Jim, you must settle on a set of wheels, its making me dizzy trying to remember which ones you have on the car :lol:
If you don't won't those ST wheels then I will pop over and take them off your hands :D

Nothing wrong with Superlights (I had to say that), ST used Minilights on the works cars for rallying.

Revolutions are lovely too!

Having said that, once those GT6 wheels have been cleaned up they will look lovely too.

Here's a pic for you then!!

Just teaching my boy the importance of having a tea break :D
Nice to see he is paying lots of attention, so I think when I am to old to hold a spanner he will be able to do it for me :wink:
As you can see, no one is doing any work at this point!

But the back axle is now not leaking from the prop and just pulling the hubs to fit new bearings!

Hi Paul,

I have got to replace the rear wheel bearing on one side of my Coupe in the next week or so, and I've never done a Marina (have done Avenger, Escort, Midget though) so any pics or advice would be great.
