The new Rc Bros wheels for a nice cf look or the C.I. Six bolts for a cheap route. Though the six bolts would be about the same as what you have. Tires look great, I need a set also. Just waiting for Matt to show the silvers in stock again. Worth the wait!!! You will love the Voodos, I had mine narrowed up also.

Thanx Farmer,

I really like the RCbro's 3 piece CF wheels.......
the CI six bolt are cool, I like them for the VP hub..
with the super star wheels you are stuck with the offset......

I have an Alum. wheel in mind that has a few different hubs so it very adjustable but I have to cut 1/2 inch off the back to make it 1 inch....

Looking at the file date I drew this up two and a half years ago I need to update it some but same basic concept. Basically split wheels. The shape should give them strength. Do 3-4 different dishes and you could have adjustable backspacing and width in addition to tuning with the hubs. I just ordered some stuff to try em...

Nice....

With different dishes and hubs these will be soooo adjustable....

maybe even with a hole pattern in the front dish......

Faux beadlock dimples? Or holes for standoffs? I was hoping to move away from standoffs...

Edit: Maybe you mean a "spoke" pattern?

so taking the scissors to 80 dollar tires wasn't so bad.....
at least I didn't screw any up...............


Soooooooo, I thought I would take a hacksaw, dremel, scotch brite pads, and a file of course, to a New set of wheels........:ro r:

I just didn't like how wide they were............
