BRM A MAIN INGREDIENT OF THE CAL LOOK

[louisb]

Slightly off topic but there is a pic in the bible of the Pincher with a set of early BRMs with a different spoke design. (Which I think looks better than the production items, but that is just me.) What is the story on those? Where there any more ever made?

You can run them with out tubes, if you like 4 flat tires....  As for spacers  Jack @ Jaycee is able to make them he may have the program in his CNC. He used 1 of mine as a sample.  The FAT caps look good.  I clear coated mine to make them a little closer to orig.  The orig. caps have a little more sheen & depth than the copies but they are pretty close.  And for Keith , he does'nt like BRM's because they would'nt fit on any of his 411's & he is still mad about that.

Why do they go flat? Porosity, or the design of the wheel?

It's OK, sometimes I forget my own car - my memory has become bad as I have got older.
I opened the front the other day and found my spare is also a original BRM .

My memory might be bad, but it ain't that bad Kurt! 

Oh, and you're just greedy - you don't just have a spare - you've got a spare SET!  Cool!
