pete g Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 would any one be interested in a group buy for some split rim wheels. some details here. pm me if you are interested New for 2009 these striking yet lightweight 13" three piece split rim wheels have become a well received addition to our ever growing component portfolio. Utilizing the same construction and assembly methods as our popular 10" wheels, and again using our own tooling to produce these lightweight wheels, we can closely control both availability and quality. Available in widths from 5.5" to 8.5", with various offsets and rim combinations. Example weight 3.4kgs for a 7" wheel, 3.6kgs for the 8" wheel. Rim sections available are- Inner Rims 1.5", 2", 3", 3.5", 4" ,4.5, 5", 6" Outer Rims 1.5", 2", 2.5", 3", 3.5" ,4", 5" Our wheel centres are CNC machined from 6082T6 billet aluminium, and are available colour anodised in Red, Gold, Black or Silver. Special request colours are not a problem, but would have a longer lead time usually. Also if you are having problems with supply of spare rim sections for wheels you already have from different manufacturers we may be able to help you. Our wheels are available in any 4 stud PCD. By the request of some customers, these wheels are now available with solid spokes, as shown further down the page, although there will be a weight penalty of 350g per wheel compared to the split-spoke design. We also produce trhe split spoke wheel with a slightly heavier spoke at 7mm thick as opposed to the superlightweight 5mm spoke, Quote
Tigger Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Would be interested if you could get a bit of discount mate Quote
John Loudon - Sponsorship Liaison Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 It depends on the price Pete. Any indication of ball park? What make are they by the way? Quote
Crash test dummy Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 They are a bit lighter and a fair bit cheaper than Barnby magnesium wheels. Quote

Tom Frankland (T3OMF) Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 I'm in market for 2 sets of 13" wheels as I have now sold my 15"'s Must say I love the look of these but if they are about £200 a wheel, then they are out of my price range Quote
nikpro Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 I maybe very very wrong but that design doesn't look very strong to me (Look more for show than go) - I wouldn't like to 'ride the kerbs' to often with them. Quote
pistonbroke Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 They should be available with choice of centers , solid spokes (stronger) ? etc. Think that's the idea of split rims ? Quote
peterg Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Force? as in single seaters or other? It's 'other' John, they're not connected to Force Racing Cars at all Quote
stephenh Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 I might be interested in 2 wheels (not 2 sets!) depending on price. Also, think I'd want the solid spokes. 13" by 8.5", need to work out the offset. Quote
michaelcoombs Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Might be interested in a set depending on price. Quote
