I'm thinking they are surely more streamline having a flat face,


Surely you could have achieved the same aerodynamic effect with a flat carbon fiber disc over the wheel which would have been considerably lighter.

It would certainly look better if you unbolt the centre and realign it with the valve

I seriously doubt it!

Would look nice if you make the centre dished like Vizards old wheels.

It looks narrow to me, its not for the back of JH's car is it?

There's something going on in that wheel, but I can't quite work it out.

Since F1 now all have wheel trims (which could be described in some cases as spinners) I suspect that they will soon be seen on Migs and the like.

It's probably just the perspective of the photo, but it looks like the inside lip of the rim is a smaller diameter than the outside.

Like those dodgy american race cars that drive round boring banked ovals all day...

So it is 12".

Who in historics uses 12", I thought that they all used 10s. then people who know best use 13s.

12s are a middle ground, my favorite actually, but no-one makes 12" slicks.

I still think the reflection in the wheel is Carl with his meat and two veg out.
