Who makes those wheels? That thing is bananas |
They're made by MWS, here is the page for them http://www.midlandwheels.com/Shop/C-129-7-x-17.html
They do them in both 112 and 130 pcd as seen on the Kerb Snake
Don't know if anyone is stocking them in the US but i know CIP1 have sold MWS wheels in the past. |

Thanks. When I re-read my post, it looks like I was trying to be a dick. Sorry about that, I just really wanted to know.
Do you have any issues with the rear CV's with that much angle? _________________ nothing |

My most recent project. I bought the bus and retrieved it from Eastern MT with the help of my buddy Longroofs back in March. One month later we drove it 900 miles round trip to the VW show in Lacey, WA. This bus had not seen the road in over 15 years. I had done a complete mechanical restoration, and installed a nice 1776 I had in another bus. I have been buffing the original lotus white paint and fixing little details. I need to do a more thorough cleaning of the interior and some more detailing. It has the Indian red interior in pretty good shape, even has the middle seat. The headliner is nearly perfect. Original gas heater, too. _________________ nothing |
