I have just purchased 10 15x7 MO wheels for my rally Toyota. I now run GrA stud
pattern with Alcon works breaks. This combination of offset and stud pattern
exists in heads of several people in UK. Allan from Motorsport spetialties got
hold of Barry, the owner of Compomotive in UK and they researched  everything,
called all the right people and made me correct wheels. All at great price. I was
impresses.
Also Compomotive wheels appear now on all mighty Hundai rally cars out of
Vermont  this rally season.
