Vintage Wheels 17\"
I have been speaking quite a bit with Bob lacey at Vintage Wheels as I was deciding on what wheel to buy for my RF. As it turned out I ordered a set of his wheels which arrived today. Need I say the wheels were wonderful and would look right at home on my car. Then the world hit me in the head because when I fitted the front I found that I had a slight conflict with the brake caliper. Yes I had measured every way but sideways and Bob had been very good in helping me to get the fit right but I still got it wrong. Here I was with these wonderful BRM style wheels that I can't use.
Anyway the reason for this post is that in speaking with Bob I learned that he was introducing a 17" wheel in a couple of months. He offered to ship me a set of the 17" when he got them and that I should hold on to the 15" so that I could ship them to an East cost customer for him.
I can wait a couple of months and I truly enjoyed working with Bob.
