Merry Christmas to all!

Does anyone recognise these wheels? They are a 14" steel wheel that came with our syncro, trying to find a 15" steel wheel for off roading and would like some of the same if I could find out what they are?

Mangels Triangulo is what they're called

i thought they looked like weller 8 spokes.

I think they are pretty well the same thing but seem to be universally known as Mangles

Thanks Guys

I will see if I can find a supplier on the net and let you know how I get on.

Yes I know Weller Wheels well as I used them when I raced FVW and FF all those years ago. The pic is a Mangle wheel which was available for the T3 in Europe. They pop up on ebay.de every now and then but there are none there now. 14" only AFAIA

might know where 3 15" brand new ones are if you are interested

Thanks Paddy, settled for some 15" merc steels that we just picked up.
Means I can direct the "wheels" budget on something else
