Not sure how this will be received or even if it's in the right section but . . .
I was searching the forum for an Omega "wheel ID guide" & could not find anything comprehensive. . . .so . .
Just a thought . . .& after seeing Terberts photos of wheels from the Wycombe meet. I thought maybe an Oofer who has
both the knowledge & a bit of time , could compile a guide of all the different types of wheels, with name/model fitted to
the Omega through it's history .
I can identify most of them on sight , but many members may not be able to. It would also help when buying an Omega of
a certain year & model ,to know what wheels it came with originally.
Gonna be bit time consuming for someone to search out all the photos of these , but I'm sure it would be a worthwhile
addition to the Maintenance guide or FAQ section :-\ :-\
As I sadly do not have the PC skills to do this myself . . :-[ :-[ Anyone up for it ? ::)

Crack on then ;)
Start with Terb's pics, and I'm sure somebody would help out with getting pics uploaded for you :y

I would do TB . . willingly . . . but as said in the last line of my original post , my chances of sourcing the pics , then
shrinking & loading them . . .along with the required text . . . is ZERO . . . actually even less than that . I'm usless with a capital C on a computer :-[ :-[
It's a similar comparison with you trying to play "Jessica" on a guitar after one lesson ::) ::) . . .yes I'm that US ;D ;D

Can you tell, for example, by the pics of wheels I put up in the Wycombe meet, what actual model of Omega they come from originally :o
Well out of my league.....but if anyone wants the pics, I'll mail them to you :y
Got a feeling Ian took a load of wheel shots...not sure if at Oxford or Wycombe a while back :)

Yes . .most of them . . . although some of those pics you posted are non standard VX wheels ;)
Talking VX only here ;) also no FL CDX wheel in your pics though ;)

Splendid . . . . could you add the Irmy Sportstar & Irmscher MFL MV6 & the early PFL alloy to that ?

Nice one. :y
I asked Terbert to avoid taking a photo of the only wheel on my car with dodgy lacquer and what does he do, takes a photo of that wheel. ::) ;D How cruel of you Terbs. ;D
I'll have to get it refurbed now. :'(

Sure no problem... Not 100% but isn't that PFL wheel off a CDX :-\

Not sure myself . . . I didn't say I knew them all ;D ;D thats the point of this guide ;) ;)
Also the MFL MV6 Irmscher wheel from terbs list could be added :-\

;D ;D My dear Alan...I am sure these clever devils will do a bit of photoshopping to make the wheel look top dollar if they need the pic :y
Its a good idea, though. But when Al asked me earlier, I had to admit I could not tell one wheel from another. As long as there was one on each corner, I was satisfied

Not specifically a wheel pic, but WVV is a silver FL CDX saloon, with correct wheels.
