Team Raleigh Dyna-Tech ex Adrian Timmis. Finished Project.

The rims aren't the originals. The bike came with a mismatch of FIR and Mavic rims and so sourced the Bonty's, which were the rim brand of choice for Team Raleigh. With help of FC i've sourced some NOS Bonty/Weinmann rims which aren't the same as the red/blue spots but the BCR 1/2 type that Baker used.

St John St Cycles used to have some of those.
Hope you can get it sorted ok.
Cheers,
Ian.

It would not be unusual to have mis-matched rims as various rim makes were used. Mavics were usually available from stock in SPD as we used them on production models. FIR were a sponsor of the team. I think it was a deal that Micky Morrison did with FIR , although we never used them on stock bikes. Weinmann/Bontrager and Campagnolo were all used at different times.
