Villeneuve and Ontario

Oh this is So Calif! Without giving it much thought I assumed this was Canada and a relative of the Great Gilles(sp?). Showing my age of course.
Gilles was not much like Jacque(sp?) which you may all be familiar with from Cart and Indy car racing. Jauque never made it big in F1 as I recall. Gilles did of course, driving for Ferrari in a prior hey day. Jacque was a Jerk, Gilles was a Gentleman...at least that's what I get from the media and we know how accurate that can be at time.

It's very much worth the additional $125! Keeps the heat and sun glare out.

Offsets are always stamped on the back of the wheel, usually on the insides of the spokes.

Otherwise, no wheel retailer will ever be able to maintain and validate their inventory...
