New Wheels!

[ProfGriff]

I'm all excited. I just ordered a set of these Revolutions in 15x7. They should be here in 3 or 4 weeks.

 

Cheers

I always liked that style wheel,be sure to post a picture after mounting.

Fer sher! I'm running a black stripe down the whole car, so I think that will set off these nicely!

 

Cheers!

I'm running 13" 4-spokes for my track setup. They look retro but I've gotten some nice comments in the paddock.

I also have a set for my street set up. I've always loved this design.

Thanks Dave, great looking Westie! That must fly with the S2000. I have my eye on an S2000 powertrain that a friend was going to use in a Bugatti replica, but can't finish due to health reasons. Not that I'm complaining about how mine goes with a ~190HP 2.1 SOHC Ford and T9!

It does "get out of the way in a hurry" as my dad would have said. I have ITB's on the S2000 engine so it makes 230 hp at the wheels (260ish at the crank?) and I've worked very hard at getting it down to minimum weight for my SCCA solo class....meaning that it weighs 1230 pounds with the race wheel/tire installed.

 

It's a lot of fun and goes like hell around an autocross course.

I really love this wheel design and may consider them for my 13" setup.

@ProfGriff

What is the PCD?

[ProfGriff]

My Westfield uses Ford hubs so it's 4 on 108mm. It's currently sitting on Fox Body Mustang 10 hole aluminum wheels with 18 yr old street tires. I put the race tires on the 5 spoke Penta wheels it came with. Revolution can custom drill blank wheels for most bolt patterns. My set of 15x7s came to about $1300 Cdn. including lug nuts. caps, and shipping.

 

Cheers
