All the parts were made from scratch, the Borrani spinners were off a Ferrari which I had cast in alloy heat treated and machined to suit.
Was'nt a cheap exercise but the result is what I was after.
These were obviously inspired (knocked off) by the Vortz centre locks, hope Nick approves

They look great but are they legal,will they pass an MOT or some over officious police officer because they protrude the body? Just a thought.

....another option for spinners?

Ralph Nader had the 3 eared spinners banned in the USA when the Lotus Elan with knock offs was introduced. They had to go to a single hub nut...now known as a 'Nader Nut'
