Ok we all know about Linsey wheels. And there are a few others. But anyone know of a source for wheel parts?

I'm looking for a source for a custom shop that can cut long paddle Fuch centers for 18" barrels. I know you can cut centers from 16" wheels and bolt them to barrel halves, but I think the paddles look short. They're ok, but I think they would look better longer.

Then Where can you purchase barrels? The one piece kind.

18" fuchs?? im not sure thats been done....

linsey and the others (HRE??) use 16" centers with BBS 3 piece barrels in 17" sizes....

im not sure there is ebough girth on a 16" center to slam it in an 18" barrel..

why not go with 17's over 18's?
Aaron Cox
my bad - i re read what you wrote.. you want someone to make you TALLER fuchs centers???

Cool look. I think those are 17" I like the orange centers.
Aaron Cox
those most definitely are 'different'... not as defined depth wise as a fuch...

but cool!
