Actually, there are some slight differences between the Cobra SC/Halibrand  
style and the GT40/Halibrand style, with the Cobra type wheel lending 
itself  more to doing a 4 lug version and being the style that I now know has 
found a  home on at least two Tigers in the U.S. The kidney bean/Halibrand 
wheel, made  popular by the Doane Spencer car, is typically a 5 hole, but the 
first ones that  PSE did, I believe, were 4 hole and can be seen on the 
website. Since then, I  know (thanks to owner Jere Teepen) that there is one set 
of 5 hole, classic  "kidney beans" out there...
 
What I'm trying to get is a detailed shot of the front, 15X6" Cobra SC  
wheel by PSE, just to see how the center/rim relationship looks to my eye, 
prior  to asking PSE to build me a set.
 
Thanks
Mike

do you  mean the halibrand style that the GT40 used? I have seen those on a 
matlic  type red tiiger and the HSC style kidney beans on another. The 
tiger with  kidney beans is on the PS website.. the other GT40 style was on the 
cover of  the CAT mag about 3 months back for the auotcross.

I know that there is a car in SoCal that is running the SC  Cobra/Halibrand
style wheel...looking for pics, please, or  information.

I'm considering having Phil make me a set, but am really  curious to see the
wheels on a Tiger, particularly the fronts, with  detail of the center to
rim  halve area (the raised portion of the  center in relation to the valve
stem  surface).

Thanks!
