Do you know if they have a range of offsets / widths available, and would they be able to make them for single nut applications ?

Just a question for u:
does any of the customer of the superlite planning to race in some category (maybe in europe or Us?).
I would like to see this one racing soon (maybe also in hill climbs..dunno)
Just curious.
The car is wonderful...but u wellknow HOW much I love your art.
P.S. and little OT drift..in the last engine pic..I see also the Stratos in the background

Rep Power: 2  | Re: Superlite wheels.....BIG.... Fran, every time i look at the SLC i get a diferent perspective of the size of the thing. I have know idear about how big this thing is.
What size were the original wheels?
what are the tryes that you have on these wheels at present as well
id prefer something with more of an outer lip in the design, though i looks like it will be posible.
does the RCR SLC use suspension components that are comon to the other RCR cars, asking in regards to rego purposes |
