I wish. They are Calibre Friction 18x9. But they look awesome so I'm not complaining

Found it on eBay second hand, can't remember the website where to get them new. Will have a look later.

I removed the long oil filler neck today. It was pretty straight forward. I used a oil filter wrench, but that didn't do it. So I whacked it a few times with a rubber mallet and then gave the filter wrench another go and it popped off. I did some clean up and replaced the oil cap. I'll post a pic tomorrow  :drinking:
