I'd rather have some in-vogue 2010 Mambas than my very 2004 Superlites....

Well almost anyway :lol:

I got a 6x10"set from the UK with A032Rs - they have to be the best wheels out at the moment.

Minilites are so passe.

I did giggle at Simon K's comment :shock:

Mambas and other mags have 2 advantages over steelies:
1. They are ROUND.
2. They are (generally) in balance. :P

BTW are wide steelies legal now? I used to make em way back when, we welded rolled strips in. :lol:

Single bead of weld yes.
Two beads of weld, no.

So if it's two wheels chopped and welded together its fine
A strip welded into the middle of one, no.

I may have a set of your handy work Kev, a set of 6.5" Cooper S rims that had a 2" strip welded in the middle. Great looking rims, ran them on my Mk 2 S during the 80's when I was at uni.
