those are real american racing 12 spokes mag( same as picture ) or copy  ???

they're bigger & narrower than the American Racing 12 spokes, they're 18" x 3" as opposed to the 15" x 4" Americans.

they're the Radir remakes....its a crime to call them a copy, they're a work of art... ;D  and are designed to easily take a wilwood disc brake set-up.

Brakes are only needed when you need to stop, and jicks car hasn't moved for ten years ;)  But it has covered about 300 miles ??? ???

i'm looking on target though lids for the end of this year....or certainly Volksworld show 2008!

by the way...forgot to add, Speedwell...the wheels are a remake of the Halibrand versions. :)
