Oh yea BTW Nathan this IS ALL YOUR FAULT!!!!!
If 'n you wouldn't have posted the screaming deal on Hoosiers I wouldn'y need wider wheels. The relaxed bead on them tiars is 7 1/2" Ya 7" rims would work but since I'm paying good money Might as well get what I want. Package 1 of 2 arrived last night allready had 2 of 2 Monday. |

I think that is the front, unless they mounted the valve stem on the rear! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) Those are interesting wheels. Show us a photo when you get them installed. |

i'm just worried that a 7.5" rim won't fit under your fenders. at all. you want 7's or 6.5's...
i got my 6.5's on ebay about a year ago. VERY happy with them. almost as light as fuchs, and the width REALLY helps put ALL the tire to the ground. |

Maybe Kaiser has not changed the web prices, but those should be closer to $270 a pop according to their web prices....

They will fit the fenders or...... I'll make fenders fit the wheels.

Most that can happen is all four layers of paint will crack. Not Keizer wheels. Some other outfit. Did find a better deal I think about 209.00 a wheel and the will make anyhting I want. So just got to work out the details. like stud diameter and length and lug nut style. all of which has been sent. just waiting on a picture. Fuggly? well I think black centers should look better. |

pictured wheels look like Keizer(even has the Keizer logo), that is why I posted that...funny thing is I think the 4 lug version looks better....there is also Real Racing Wheels, but thier pricing is closer to your original qoute....
at $200 a pop, that is a smoke'n deal for a race rim that lite (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) |
