Too bad I didn't know about this when I bought mine.  Oh well.
Actually, I wonder if the Aussie source has them for ACs.  Far as I can
tell BWW is the only place in the US that does.  In fact, an ad in a
SHELBY AMERICAN magazine about ten years ago is what put me on to
British Wire Wheel in the first place.  With a potential world wide
customer base of at most 2500 cars (Aces and Acecas included), I can't
see where there would be much interest in this market.
