  1. I totaly undertsand your point all manafacturers have cast wheel made from usually a outside manafacturer that specialise in that field. my friend works in the plant in quensburough new westminister canada. that makes honda wheels. we had talks about failure rates that come from castings they throw wheel back into the foundry becuase of poroseness all the time. they have specialised equipment for checking runout and a bunch of other flaws that can happen in the casting process all my point was if u wanted to make different sizes of wheels in that style getting a couple of the original wheels maped and installed in a cad u could manafacture different size wheels that are exact.and a lot of wheel customiser today have tripple axise machine out there that can do anything u want out of a solid chunk or slice of aluminum. if u gys decide to purchase wheels i hope they are full checked before u run them at high speeds thats all. i personally like billet better for strength i have had aftermarket cast wheels that i have sent back rims becuase of the inner air leaking slowly through the porouse material. i dont know who the company u gys will be buying from but hoppfully he has all the machinery to check for flaws thats all. the best to all. :heart:
  2. I totally under stand about price just a sugestion,.. cast wheels if not done properly usually slowly leak air. u seem to know your stuff but there is many factors in casting wheels that can go wrong to make them weak. on my countach i will be going to a bigger wheel when finished body work i used to race cars so ive seen some wierd things happen to cast wheels at high speed its your life. i would never by a set of cast wheels unless they were original lamborghini peices. casting is old technology they can come apart at high speeds if not properly done. i personaly will spend the extra and get them done out of billet. there is manafactures all over the country that can copy the wheels and make them any size u want. mht was just a generic sugestion. its worth the extra flow. :partyman:
  3. Why dont u gys call mht and get them the make u gys copys in billet. expensive but the best choice for strength. then once they get the wheel diamaters in the cad computer they can make u exact replicas any size u want.
  4. love this sight man :twisted: :supz:
