Michael, I really like them - refined and impressive to match your vehicle. Would appreciate the name and contact details for the manufacturer as I will be looking for rims of this style in the near future. |

Thank you David They are the later speedline turbo R 17" wheels , the caps are a custom fit, because I didn't want to pay £1000 for hub caps. The wheels and standard caps are £1,920 including caps from FS seems more reasonable lol Cheers Mike |

Hi Paul I've made a ring sleeve inside the wheel and the caps clip inside as normal. Cheers Mike |

Hi Mark No unfortunatly not , the rim inside the speedline wheels is much deeper than the ronals. Cheers Mike |

Good question Mike. There is something nice and simple about the center caps, Not sure I'd change that. But if you do, I don't think just sticking a B on them would work.Maybe a small emblem. Mark |

Michael, If it was a R-R, I would say yes but, for a Bentley, I say no........ |
