Wheel identification

[PeaTear]

Can anyone identify these wheels? I do like them on the car but 2 of them are missing the centre caps and I want to try to get replacements

They look wolfrace or supaslot.

you may be able to make a replacement centre from an old Coke can.

Often centre caps are a bit universal  you could try some of the others available to make a set 

If you need that amount of weights to balance there is a tyre trying to tell you its not at its best

Dynamic balance would be normally on the back off set not stuck on the front face

 Haha yeah it's shocking the amount of weights. The previous owner reckoned the tyres had been there for about 8 years

Loads of tread left though 

[Pete Lewis]

you need to get some new tyres, at that age they might have tread, they wont have much grip as the rubber gets very hard  

7 years is the recommended  replacement age

with that amount of weights i guess theres someone trying to counteract some tread runout   or a banding problem

get some new  budget known brand    soon  preferably   round ones  with a 2018 build date

They are another item on the hit list unfortunately an upcoming holiday is putting a stop to any work on the car

[Pete Lewis]

Thats fine just be aware they are round and black have a good tread left but thats about all  !!

please pencil in some replacements when you can,  we all work within a budget , they are all you have between you and the road

They  need to work,,    old tyres dont work....maybe move the ideas around , dont spend all the work making the car nice and 

Some sudden braking in the rain and a ditch or lampost zoom into the plan

Don't worry.  The safety items are the first to get sorted, tyres and binding rear brakes. The cosmetic bits can wait until a winter layup.
