Vintage Type Offerings
 
Thats good Trevor, but I have to admit I got a education on this, and I was all wrong, Barry educated me yesterday, VTO was never a brand name of wheel we sold, it stands for Vintage, Track, Overland, I had to ask what overland actaully meant, some of you may know, one of the things Barry has been into for years that has absoluely nothing to do with my business, so I never paid attention to it, for you that don't know what that means, I'll share with you, an overland vehicle, could be a Land Rover, Land Crusier, or any HD 4 wheel drive truck or SUV type vehicle that is designed to run across the wide open offorad areas for days at a time and also be used for shelter at night, very popular in places like the deserts in Africa, and other remote areas of the world, I had no idea, sure I seen that stuff on TV, but never really thought much about it, but to the overland crowd it all about durabilty and stength.

Hmmm, I learn something everyday :smile:

Great looking wheels, too bad I just purchased a set of 13" wheels! the Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec is a great tire, Car and Driver does a head to head review of these tires against 9 other high performance summer tires and the Dunlops came out on top. We run them in our Audi quattro race car(24 hour of lemons car) and they work very well, even in the rain! Now to save up and buy a set of the 14" Retros!


Yee Haaa.....the DoneLappeds came in this morning.
Nice looking in person. Lot of rubber on the road.
Can't wait to install them on some Retro 4s.
