[Fot] wheels

[MadMarx]

The current status here in Germany is that these wheels are off the street
now.

The German TUV wants to have a manufacturer proof (or how do you call this)
about the strength and durability of their wheels before they are allowed to
use on the road.

Rota dont supply this certification with their wheels so nobody can use
them legally here in Germany.

So going by that, if Bill wants to buy rain wheels for his car he's pretty
much left with companies like BBS, Jongbloed, CCW, Kodiak, etc.

I'm not exactly sure he's looking to spend $3k on a set of rain wheels.

Unfortunately, you're not going to find much in the way of good cast wheels,
without breaking the bank, without sourcing them from Asia.  Maybe
Superlight? In all seriousness, they work on Spec Miatas (FYI: the Spec
Miata lap record at Watkins Glen is a 2.17.0. This is faster than any
Triumph has ever gone except for Halkias' EP car.). I'm pretty sure they're
going to hold up in wet conditions on a TR6.

Later,
