Minotaur Wheels Arrived!!

[tony barnhill]

Moss has their Christmas Sale going on right now so I decided to give myself a gift...I bought a set of Minotaur 14"x5.5" wheels that I'm gonna use under my race car if my 15" Shelby's are ruled illegal....haven't mounted them yet but I took one out of the box & it sure is nice!

....& the price is right!

I'll bite - what is the price Tony?

That's a pretty wheel btw...

Nice looking wheels, but then again I'm biased.

Those look PROPER, Tony!! Put 'em on anyhoo and send me th' Shelby's! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/devilgrin.gif

Doc - I think one of the sanctioning bodies won't care about the 15" Shelby's - the other might get their panties in a wad!

Got em on mine, got em from Tony. Pix coming as part of my before and after documentary.

Yep - looking at a set for a customer when they came through my shipping department (hehehe - sounds fancy!) convinced me I wanted a set!!

Just curious, what would make your Shelbys illegal?

 

[tony barnhill]

One of the historic racing sanctioning bodies say you can't change the size of the wheels - Shelby's are 15", MGB's originally came with 14"....though my 15" Shelby/Kumho combination has the same diameter as the 14" Minotaur/Kumho combination...but its less sidewall with the 15"-ers, I guess....Hap will have to explain this one to us.

 

[Baz]

No worries Tony/Hap, I assumed for street use.
Thanks!
BTW, the Minotours are v. nice!

Tony, you've just got to remember to shut that back door!! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/lol.gif

Better yet have your staff attend to it. I have my "inside people" doing things all the time.

Just tell them it is an MGC (which had 15" wheels) that is cylinder-deprived.... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/banana.gif
