I'm considering putting some 16" spiders on my Cerbera (once I find some at a decent price!). Any views on what there like (do they damage easily, handling compared to 18", etc)?

Any owners with some gathering dust in their garage, let me know (I've advertised in 'WANTED').

Cheers,
Tommo

Raceboy -

Thanks for posting the pic.

Does that Cerbera belong to anyone on PH? Its a CI (Guernsey) number plate isnt it? Think I saw this one in the docks car park in St. Peters Port last year.

Sorry I haven't got mine anymore! BTW I should have said that I found the 16" wheels a death trap on the track (didn't we, Raceboy!!?). The handling on the 18" wheels is immeasurably superior. The comfort level on normal roads however is a little better on the 16", and turning circle is better. take your pick!

Yeah, there for road use at present anyway. I'm going to give them a go, thanks to Nick (Elliot).
