Hello,
I think this may be my first post here. ...so brief introduction. I recently purchased a 1970 914/6 GT look car. It currently is running Big Reds and little reds for brakes with 16x10 HRE wheels on all four corners. I'm changing the brakes to 930 turbo brakes and am going to run some 15s on the car. ...trying to find some minilites at least 15x9 but maybe 15x10 depending on what I do for tires. Can anyone hear supply a source for minilites. I had been talking to the guys at Aircooled Racing but they have not answered their phone for a couple weeks so am looking for a new supplier. I've attempted to attach pics of the car for grins. ...It is now silver. I like the original irish green better Thanks! Jay |

For what it's worth; they make both 15x9 and 15x10 out of the UK. They are distributed by Aircooledracing here in the U.S.
15x10 superlites are available out of Australia as well. If I can determine that the 15x9 will clear my brakes, I'm going that route with the Maxxis VR-1 size 245x40x15. Cheers, |

BTW as much as Minilite wheels are cool, personally I'd go with three piece rims, as you can mix and match to changing needs. |

Keeping the 3piece 16x10s to run the slicks. The Minilites are just for fun... For what it's worth; they make both 15x9 and 15x10 out of the UK.
