Title: Big Wheel Post by: Zach Gomulka on October 08, 2007, 19:51:44 pm 15x8 Big Wheel. Needs alot of work, or keep it as is for one bitchin' water hose reel. Id like to trade it for vintage performance stuff rather than sell, so if one of you guys wants it and has something I may be interested in, let me know.

Title: Re: Big Wheel Post by: Lee.C on October 08, 2007, 21:59:08 pm I've been looking for a full set of those for a while but they never seem to come up for sale :(
Any leads guys ??? :) Title: Re: Big Wheel Post by: Zach Gomulka on October 09, 2007, 00:07:48 am Ive never seen a full set for sale, matter of fact I think this is only the third or fourth wheel Ive ever seen. Rare bird, indeed.
Title: Re: Big Wheel Post by: Lee.C on October 09, 2007, 01:26:50 am Yep I know they are pretty rare little puppies ;) :) My friend Rob with the Bronze Manx at EBI used to have a set but he sold them about 4 /5 years ago - I don't know if they left the UK - Anyone have any info ???
Title: Re: Big Wheel Post by: Joe_G on October 09, 2007, 02:47:26 am I have one front wheel, found in a breakers in So-Cal a few years ago. Northern Steve had a pair of rears from the same yard i think. :)

Title: Re: Big Wheel Post by: simon uk on October 09, 2007, 16:09:16 pm cool wheel, that is some serious mutilation on the centre cap area though, could that be fixed and be made safe to run again? On samba a few months ago there were a couple of sets, but they were 14's.
Si. Title: Re: Big Wheel Post by: Zach Gomulka on October 10, 2007, 17:25:30 pm Its cracked too. Im sure if the centre was cut loose from the hoop that the cap area could be fixed, as well as the crack. Then you could have it put on a narrower hoop with whatever backspacing you wish. Here is a pic of a nice one Ive lifted from David Mayes site... and my cracked one.
