Can anyone name the wheels on my 110?

The centre hubs are rusty and I want to get some new shiny ones (after I do the door skins, side steps.....)

I see what you did there.....'Name those wheels....'
You have to be really careful how you ask your questions on here don't you? :)

Ok, what manufacturer and product name would these wheels be?


Pretty sure the fifth wheel was Neville????
 
Neil Aspinall He was a friend of McCartneys and their 1st tour Manager. & a director of Apple Records till he died of cancer.
 
Though there have always been more than just the 4 beatles every one seems to remember

1John Lennon Beatles member
2 Paul McCartney Beatles member
3 George Harrsion Beatles member
4 Ringo Starr Beatles member
5 George Martin Producer
6 Stuart Sutcliffe Bassist (1959-1961)
7 Pete Best Drummer (1960-1962)
8 Mal Evans Road manager, assistant, friend
9 Derek Taylor Press agent, journalist
10 Brian Epstein Manager
 
And this is a definitive list of everyone who was a member of not just the beatles but all the other bands they were in before changing their name to the beatles..

OK, panic over.

They do indeed look like modulars with a bit of a cheeky paint job.
Cheers Gents!!!

The Beatles revival can now continue unabated!!!
 
i did - burree played wiv em an awl - wot i shud have sed was ....

"in your list of players, yu forgot Neil Aspinall who played with the Quarrymen, hence my comment earlier..."

:p:p
 
They are just standard modulars which someone has sprayed chrome. The centre hub cap is exactly what I'm looking for! They have been done to mimic wolf wheels
 
you dont see the military going around with chrome wolfs though do you? bit of a give away!

Ps. modulars are not wolfs! only wolfs are wolfs :D stronger than any modular :D get the real deal
