I'm not sure I understand exactly what you're looking for. If it's an exact
duplicate of the TR6 pressed/perforated steel wheels, except made from some
other alloy (aluminum? magnesium? Kryptonite?), then I'm not aware that such
an item has ever been produced. Someone else may.
Moss UK produces the pressed steel TR6 wheels in various widths, but not
from alloy.
You can also get "minilite-type" or Panasport alloy wheels in a knock-off
hub configuration so that you can interchange your sets of alloy and wire
wheels . . .
