Cheers Chris

They are a crime against nature!
Stop thinking about them.... oh hang on they're for a Golf3 - carry on.

Horrid looking things that never suited anything. :grin:

I beg to differ, Range rover classic suits its three spoke alloys very nicely. :wink:

I used to think they suited soundillusion's retro looking mk1, now I'm not so sure. Love one day hate the next kind of wheels.
3 spokes look OK on some rx-7's. They suited the Range Rover too.

you've got a real deep emotional hatred for the mk3 that I think is unhealthy, after all it's just a car! :grin:
I see one and my face looks like this :smiley: you see one and I imagine your face looks like this :angry: :sick: why? what have they done to you to make you see red everytime they are mentioned?
I know I'm taking the pi55 and I'm just having a laugh, but really, what is it about the mk3 that makes you so against them?

Oh man....You could have at least chosen one that wasn't from when it was just out of surgery. :grin:

Three spokes suited a select few during their era. The first and only thing my car needed shot of was it's wheels.
I still have a near mint set of Valveless Antera Type 109's :grin:

^^^^ Same as mine with a bit extra. :grin: Again with the hidden valves. :cool:

The Range Rover doesn't count - it's not a car.
The others all make me feel slightly sick.
I blame the gash Fiesta RS for this - it scarred me off them in my yoof.
Bob - I hate jelly mould design and unnecessary weight. The G3 has both of these. And a lack of power. Its only place is as utility motoring.

Pretty sure the classic is classed as an estate. :nerd:

I'm sure it's all relevent. The next question could be: Could range rover three spoke alloys fit on a mk3 with the right adaptors and tyres? :wink:

ANTERA's wheels have won numerous accolades from critics, culminating in 1994 with the title of "Alloy Wheel Design of the Year" for the Type 109 three-spoke.
(http://www.antera.it/img/history_3.jpg)
At its launch, the Type 109 created a stir. It was the first truly harmonious and balanced three-spoke wheel, and it took the market by storm. The 109's striking looks have made it a contemporary classic in every sense. In 1994, ANTERA received the award "Alloy Wheel Design of the Year" for design excellence of this wheel type. Today it still ranks among the most memorable wheel designs in the history of alloy wheel design.
Another novelty was the completely under the center hub cap hidden, integrated air valve, routing the air through a channel in one of the spokes into the tire. This innovation led to a completely uninterrupted, balanced surface of the rim. Even at that time, the wheel was already available in sizes up to 10 x 18 inch.

Sorry, but a three spoke wheel can never be balanced. It will always be wrong and the above examples still totally do not do it for me, especially when you consider the huge range of other (not wrong) wheels that could be there in their place.
1994.
The year Kurt Cobain killed himself.
Now, I'm not going to suggest Cobain inconsiderately killed himself because of the prevailance of tri-spoke alloy wheels, but the winning of the Alloy Wheel Design of the Year by a three spoke wheel points to something not being right in the world.
John Major was Prime Minister. Need I say any more?
About the only other note-worthy thing that happened in 1994 is Richard Nixon died, so it wasn't entirely a dreadful year.

Maybe Courtney came home with tri spokes on her Bronco, that would push me over the top as well
