KN Jupiter wheels

I think I have become just about wheel crazy! I find that every time I pass a car I think what the wheels may look like on a Locost.

I have seen some 14x6 KN Jupiter wheels for sale and would like to know what they look like. They are £250 with five decent A021R tyres. They came of a Caterham de dion so I know they will fit.

Have some very similar off a Caterham, but the dimensions seem different. Would post a pic, but the last time I did, the picture was too large. The spokey bits were more elongated. Needless to say, I like them!!

Haven't got your pic, but the guy selling them has sen't me one. He has reduced them to £230 because of lack of interest! I think they are stunning.

Ned, I am not sure whether these are actual caterham wheels or just wheels that he has put on his cateringvan. I have seen your pictures on your website and they seem to fill the arches more than yours. Anyway, it doesn't mattere if they stick out of the arches because of the wrong offset, it's not going on the road.

I had been looking for minators so did what you did and went on blatchat.com, very good site for parts. I found these for sale at £250.
