Re: Home made wheels at an affordable price
Dominick,
Are you building a 1/4 scale Cobra? I have been looking for chassis plans and a resonable source for a body for years. Just found this site last night.
I have a source for a go cart sized Cobra fiberglass body but so far have only seen the guy mentioned on here selling the body only for like $500.
I have been hooked ever since I found the Conley site years ago.

I dont know whos car this is but its gorgeoous, but the rim is what i want..The raised fins inside the cut groves will be thin plastic strips glued on after the rims is trimmed and cut
correction....the rim diameter is 5 inches and they are 3.75 inches wide....opps
By the way....the ooutside diameter of the rim is 4 inches and the width is 3 inches...The offset can be made different by placing the center hub behind or in front of the raised groove inside the PVC coupling
Hers a pic of the rim Im going to make my first project
People who build, build

Cool wheels. How are you cutting them they look perfect. I'm dreaming of a cnc plasma table to ad to the shop for play but need to justify it with somehting profitable. lol
