Clearly a Rose Petal, but how wide is it ?

A peek of my wheels, now glass blasted - spackled & primed, just waiting for the finishing "touch" and some Black paint.

Could we please agree on one thing? Never show pictures of "genuine" 12" Rosepetals ever again. I'm trying to convince myself they don't exist ;)

I would say the wheels are most certainly mag, the cast finish with its porous holes look identical to the 12" rose petals from the Arden car, I have worked on a few early cars (not mini's) with mag wheels and this seems to be a indication.
And most probably original CCC wheels.

I don't think these are Mag, they're too heavy.

So how do you guys balance your Rose Petal,s :?:

My tyre guy had me order some bushes to fit in the bolt holes, to enable him to fit them to their tool for Citroen wheels.
