Cip1 has some 7x17 Fuchs Replicas. Shows to have 5.5" back spacing. They are right at $200 each. Wonder how they would work on a narrow body? I would post a link but I am computer challenged.

I think the Rotas only come in 2 sizes 7.5 & 9.
There are lots of debates on the Bird about the Rotas. Supposedly they are Gravity Cast, which is the cheapest way to make a wheel. Pressure-cast are much stronger, Forged even better. But nobody has reported a failure - I know a guy that does DE's on Rotas all the time - I wouldn't, but he likes them T.C. |
