    i had some speedlines on my old Willy 3 along with some genuine ones, you can hardly tell from a distance and due to the speedlines being in better nick thats what was on the car!..

    Tend to be loads cheaper too

    According to Fred, when they were stripped down ready for a refurb the Primas were actually lighter, but i don't have any eveidnce of this.
    Offset and shape are exactly the same, only way to tell is the lack of markings inbetween the spokes on the Primas.

    that darn 'Edit' Button haha...

    The speedlines were in ok condition but the prima's were in better nick hence being on there, i don't see what the major fuss is about being original when 50% of the car is either aftermarket or rust lol
