....wheels!!!

Popped by the wheel shop to check the progress of the wheels. Greeted by these beauties. Raw mag alloy....





Jeeps they're light too. Hollow spokes. Nothing to weigh'em with but I'm sure Wayne has the details.

2 x 18"x9" Dymag hollow spoke magnesium GT in satin black "C" dimension 120mm machined for centre lock single wheel nut fixing
2 X 18"x13" Dymag hollow spoke magnesium GT in satin black "C" dimension 130mm
machined for centre lock single wheel nut fixing


still think I ordered them in the right colour first time.. satin black.
I had the weights somewhere too, but that might take a bit of finding..

but how much did the steel adapter to take the car from 4 stud to single spline weigh?

bet that offsets the weight saving... although having the weight in the center rather than through the entire wheel will certainly be a benefit.

Sorry Ben, I didn't check and the wheels are packed up now to go up to the car.

Taking a week off in Oct to address some detail.
