Wheel weights....
popped into my local Nova n Strobe emporium on he way home from work
Apart from a thousand neon lamps etc
they have a huge selection of wheels...
Now, most of the skip cap brigade want 16,17,18 inch rims, so they have lots of 15 " rims on sale
Including a set of 15" TSW rims, complete with decent Yoko 195,45,15 rubber
Set of four, fitted, balanced etc etc 250.00
Which seems pretty good..
Only thing i wasnt sure of... how heavy are TSW? how heavy is an average wheel?
the bloke in the shop had no idea, no specs sheet etc- never been asked before!!
So- anyone out there know about wheels??

Here's an index of wheel weights, very interesting:
http://www.wheelweights.net/
TSWs are a little heavier than average, but skewing the bottom of the range are some very pricy ringers that cost 8-10 times what you've been
quoted.
That sounds like a great deal.

More importantly, do they have the offset and rim width you want ?

Saving the target's not available with the buttons used on the site...
You could try updating your Acrobat:
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html
Or, I'd be glad to send you a copy (size sort?) but you don't list your e-mail. if you send me an e-mail I could return the file, but I
won't be around too long this morning.

Forget the 15" wheels. o for 13" and Yoko A21R or A32R tyres 185x60 should do the trick

Is this a newly installed version of acrobat? If so, this may help> open the acrobat program directly (don't just click on the wheel dbase
file). You'll get asked to agree to the terms/ condition of use. Once you've agreed to these terms you should be able to open files.
