I had a set of ARE LeMans wheels on a TR4A that I owned long ago and was curious to see what the cost of a set would be for a TR4 I currently own. 
For a "restored" set of 5.5" or 6" x 15"with 4 x 4.5 bolt pattern I was quoted $1200. The price did not include the lug nuts which are shouldered and can be difficult to find. 
I ended up buying a set of Panasports from Spruell Motorsports in Atlanta for around $800. 
I also remember the LeMans wheel needing spacers on the front to avoid grinding the inside of the wheel. 
The quote I got was about 8 months ago 
But I do like the looks of the LeMans wheel. 
Regards 
Mark

How much would be way too much?

Charly 
These guys wanted way too much for a set of wheels. I ended up with 
Panasports which cost about $80/wheel less than what they were quoting.

Interesting, these guys are just down the street from me, well not really, 
but 125 miles seems pretty close.
