Hello to down-under!

What wheels do you have on your car. The first picture seems to reveal some alloy type of wheels - is this correct and if yes, which wheels are or were they?
Could you also please provide some more pictures (bigger ones?)

Thank you - enjoy the summer

Click on the third photo for wheel information.
Differential ratio is now 3.31. This car is also fitted with Series 2 gearbox ratios which are a bit lower in 1st, 2nd and 3rd. The idea is to make it a bit more lively. With the same intent the car has the series 3 XJ6 cylinder head (1.875" inlet valves) and higher lift, longer duration valves. There's also a lightened steel flywheel.
In the stopping department there are Girling 3 pot calipers at the front acting on ventilated discs. At the rear are Girling calipers.
