Hi there, I am in need of replacing decals on a set of wheels and so i need to know what the typeface on this is…

The actual logo itself, I have a feeling it is a custom face, but the rest surely cant be…

Anyone got any idea?? I need to know a definate answer as I cant put something different on there if they are meant to be back as if new…

I have tried contacting the company but have not had a reply!!

Cheers nick

ENGINEERING is Eurostile Bold Extended. As for the Rays bit - I do not know if it is custom or not but you could redraw it with much ease if needs be!

Wow thats brilliant…

Is the rest of it Eurostyle?? It looks like it…

Thought it was familiar ;)

The typreface that is used around the rim is Theo Ballmer and can be purchased at My Fonts : http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/urw/theo-ballmer/

No it doesnt seem to be… The ‘S’ is different i’ll keep searching… Thanks so far tho

Anybody else??

The text around the rim does have stroke widths and proportions very similar to Eurostile Bold Extended; but characters are more similar to Trademarker Light (the heavier faces of Trademarker aren’t monoline). Similar to Typodermic’s Korataki or various T-26.But no exact match yet.

Its all ok… Cheers for the help but in the end I just fabricated them up myself using Eurostyle bold and some skill ;)
