Spring B-)





The BRM wheels were just perfect. Even complete strangers praised how perfect they are -> they had to go :)
They found a new home under a split screen somewhere...

So it was time to do some Googleing, clicking and passing credit card numbers and a set of Ercos were on their way from Huntington Beach, California to Northern Finland. Again the service at Vee Dub Parts was fast and friendly. I wish I could say the same about the Finnish customs...

The set is spun aluminum Ercos made who knows where. Front wheel pair is 3 1/2" wide with '0' offset. (these are the bubble type wheels). The rear wheel pair is 5 5/8" wide with 3 1/2" backspace. ยด0' offset is excellent when lowering the front - lots of fender clearance. Tires are now 135/80 and 205/65.

3,5" backspace of the rear wheels with 205's made the use of a hideout exhaust impossible. I had to bolt in the hottest thing from the 90's - Street Tubes. Now I do not have ground clearance but maybe the rear end should be lifted back up anyway...
