The ones in Winchester? the pinstriping around the edge indicates that they are Weller wheels rather than OE Suzuki rims so they are quite likely to be 7".

Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.

I don't know if it is impossible but I've had 8 spokes back from the early eighties and they never came in 7" wide. But having said that you could get real lookalike ones in 7" wide. I have a set on mine at the moment. Some types are not flat in the centre whilst the Suzuki 8 spokes are.

Compare these two which I use as spares. The first I don't use around and about because of the weight on the door. The second makes a good get me home spare.






Here's one of the road wheels.

It may seem hard to believe but the SJ rims were designed to look like aftermarket rims to give some extra street cred :lol:
