Lets play a game of guess the wheel :)

OK,

I thought I had DC2 wheels, turns out I don't

Came to light when I bought some DC2 centre caps that didn't fit, but they did fit my spare wheel which is a dc2 wheels (found out after some snooping)

So I'm left with the black mystery wheels...

DC2 wheel

Not a DC2 wheel

And both together

I weighed both wheels;

the DC2 wheel has a 195/45 tyre on it and came in at 16.4kgs

and the mystery wheel has a 205/45 tyre on it and came in at 14.9kgs

I looked for some markings on the inside of the wheel but couldn't find anything other than the wheel specs and made in england ( more

). So have wheels that are probably over 1.5 kgs lighter than DC2 wheels and lots of confusion!

Any ideas?

The black wheel obviously has different spokes and the lip behind the spokes has a softer edge, they look like a team dynamics wheel (I can't remember the name).

The softer edge is what made me realise they were different

Whatever the black ones are, you can tell that the centre caps would have been the large style caps that cover the entire centre including the wheel nuts and sit in that shallow recess. The caps wound have then been secures using that single lug just offset from the centre bore.

Probably as rob said, team dynamics
or compomotives

Don't the team dynamics have their name on the outside of the rim?
