Nah, get in there if youve got reddys FJ.
Im a dreamer/schemer, and will have it only if circumstances prevail in the new year.
More I think about it, I'd just be better off cutting the bottom 3rd off my wheel for nowt, Knight Rider stylee.

So have 1st dibs dude.

Cheers man, go for the Knight rider stylings, might be tricky with the 4 turns lock-to-lock though. I know what you mean about the wheel-leg interface, and I'm a bit shorter than you so it must be a tight fit like.

Mk3 360 wheels are completly different to 340 ones (I say 360, they are on special editions and top spec lates too) but are the same diameter but a lot thicker hence more comfy and easier to throw about.

need something smaller really Chris. Im too giant to get my legs under a standard 340. A thicker 360 is just going to give me less room isnt it?

Same room I'd imagine but certainly isn't what you need. My housemate has a Mountney 4spoke I think he wants to sell (it's on my desk here for some reason...) I'll ask him. I've got one on a 300 boss too, but not sure I want to sell that atm ;)

Sounds interesting dude.

My wheel and boss (perfect 300 fitment, no bodging) will almost certainly be up for sale in the coming week (the one that Redline posted pics of).

I asked about that aaaages ago DK! Ben, it's really really nice in real life (or it was when I saw it, and I can't imagine it's been mistreated since then :) )

FJ can't find the lead for the camera-it's as per earlier photo.
14" as this seems to be your major concern :?
