I'm selling a set of 4 old-style 5 spoke CCW 3-piece 16x10s now without tires.

The wheels are ugly, but in a purposeful, built-for-racing kind of way that I like, and they have some nicks and scrapes [and gouges and tool marks from installing/removing stiff race tires].

Now only $300 + shipping for rims only, no tires. Price slashed

sold

Sunday's event was on very grippy asphalt that is weathered but sees very little traffic and isn't worn smooth. I won by over a second on a short course. I hadn't looked closely at the tires for several weeks, but I'm now revising my description from "lots of tread left" to "still some usable" tread left. See pcis for details.

I didn't have a good scale when the rims were bare. I measured 43 3/8 lbs on a medical scale with the current tires prior to the last event.

The rims have integral 1/4" spacers bolted to the back of the hubs with two flat head (ie tapered seat) bolts threaded into blind holes in the hubs. They came that way when I got them, and that's the only way I've ever tried to use or fit them. The net offset with spacer is about 42mm. No body, spindle, or bumpstop modifications were necessary. I had already beat my rear inner fenders for 275/40-17 on SS rims, so I don't know if that would have been needed with these rims.

Doug, my internet connection gets pretty flaky after dawn. I probably won't be able to get pictures through until tonight or early tomorrow morning. I'll give it a shot now, but if you don't here from me until later, I didn't forget ....
