Wheels. Another option....
« on: April 13, 2011, 07:17:49 PM »
Friend of mine ordered some wheels from these folks...... 

here is what he said.....

Quote
I couldn't find a single off-the-shelf rear wheel with the correct offset and bolt pattern.  I had to order custom, at $190 each.  If you're interested, take a look at Custom Metal Spinning's website.  http://custommetalspinning.com.  They can make any offset and width, by bolting two halves of a spun aluminum wheel together.  They were great to work with.

Just thought i would pass along another option for wheels.....

$190 each is a good reason to design from the wheel inward. What size was that for?

We had a few guys in our group cracking the hubs on the spindle mount ones every few trips. They changed to douglas red labels and have not broke one yet.

The reason I ask is if they are 15", the price is not that bad compared to if they were 12".
