On page 7 of the 'general' gallery, there is a yellow and green race prepared bug with a big wing on it. Does anybody know who makes the wing and wheels, and who supplies them in the UK or anywhere else? They look a bit big (possibly 20") bit I'm looking for 18". Hopefully, the rims will fit my modified 1303 which uses 968S brakes all around. If not I'll have more modifications to do.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My best guess would be racing harts. I think thats what they are called. They look like 19" wheels. :)

those are ROH modenas, and they are about 1000 dollars US per wheel.
(am going with them on my bug also :cool: )

a cheaper look alike is a ROH driftR wheel. one piece withoug rivets.

heres a pic of the wheel up close (http://www.groupawheels.com/NEW-Modena-3_4.jpg)

im told they are light, pretty much most of the three piece wheels that ROH makes are lighter than most. Ive also heard that the price has gone down, to about 2500US a set. depends on the size. and Boyd coddington wheels has a new forged line, and they have clearly stolen the design.
