I have no photos but they do look good.
Probably my second choice next to hotwires.

Don't need to let go of your hotwires to have Rebels. Just save up for a second set of tyres and have two sets of wheels. I have more than three sets for my car

Nope.

Try Wheels Australia (you can find them on e-bay or Google them) they recondition them when they can find them. I tried to get a set for my UC and waited over a year, didn't end up getting them and have sold the car since. Saw some not long ago on e-bay store 2+ yrs since getting rid of the car!!!
I love em... if you can find 14x8's, grab em. Rare as rocking horse shit.

Have since met a bloke with 2 sets but will not sell.

Hotwires are much nicer, stick with them if you already have them

My brother had rebels on his silver LH SLR many years ago without flares.
As I think back now, I reckon they looked great, mean & tuff.
Maybe it was the silver & black colour scheme of the LH SLR that complimented them so well,
