I need to find a fourth Revolution RFX wheel with the correct Metro offset to complete the rebuild of Desmond Gorman's Gold Coupe.
We have been trying to find one for the past two years, but unfortunately these are now rare as the proverbial hen's teeth.
So we are appealing to any Midas owner who may have a spare one squirreled away somewhere, please let us have it. I'm told that three wheeled Midas Golds don't drive too well!

Sorry Alistair, I can't help.

However, should you happen to find two (or more!), my spare RFX has a big dent on the rim, so I'm looking too...

Have you contacted Revolution? Perhaps they have some old stock somewhere.

Revolution was our first call two years ago. They only seem interested in selling their four spoke modular wheels in 13" sizes and then weren't sure if they could supply the correct offset.

hi Alistair, I have a few scabby RFX five spokes off my Midas. I'm willing to let you have one to get your car on the road. It will need shotblasting and coating. I'm situated in North Notts so I suppose it will have to be posted to you. Give me a ring 01777 705868, or reply by email mclarricoates@btinternet.com
