[Fot] Alloy Race Wheels Spitfire

[yellow04 at tr4racer.com]

Bob, I was under the impression that VTO imported the Superlite line, they 
have been around for years and I know a couple of racers on them. As I 
understand it, they were priced about the same as the usual suspects, and 
are a good wheel. I didn't think that wheel was stiill available. Do your 
wheels have "VTO" cast into the rim? The Superlites I am thinking of do not.

I seem to remember VTO launched it's current line of wheels a couple years 
back, and they were at that time offered at a price point significantly 
better than the usual suspects. These wheels are easily identified by the 
letters "VTO" cast into the rim. I saw a couple cars at car shows on these 
new wheels, and to me, the wheel did not look all that substantial. I 
thought I remembered a conversation about these wheels here on the FOT list, 
but an archive search turned up nothing.

I just did a Google search, and it appears the MG racers are using them in 
hoards, with no apparent calamities. Not sure it any of the fast MG guys are 
running them, though.

Anyway, it appears I stand corrected...

YMMV
