we found them a while back also - I'm sure they ARE the potenza wheels, just heavily marked up in price when they have the potenza name stamped on them.

Grrrr. big hairy man berries the shipping company want £388 to ship them. which takes them out of my price bracket. never mind.

Ive also just been told theyre actually golf cart wheels so not sure if theyre safe to use or not??

the search continues!

my concern was that they come from a chinese mass producer of golf cart / quad bike wheels so its questionable about their strength, but I guess potenza did their homework.

bear in mind, strip out the profit, shipping and handling costs, not a lot of money actually goes into the wheel - are you getting value for money??

There was quite a big argument about that going on in the german Mini-Forum...

Anyways, some of the german racers took them to the track with - as far as I know - not a single problem up to now.
So even if they are (I don't know!) it seems like they can do the job.
On the other hand they had a colapsing MB wheel (which doesn't say MBs are cr*ap, thought!!).

Anyways - I'm not into it so I shut up now

Cheers,

Besides: it's not a matter of impossibility the wheels in the first post are cart wheel too...
