Is this the extent of the interest-6 names? Don't think Richard will start a run with what we have here.
How many more from other sites Rodney? |

N2VENOM (Darren) was interested in buying multiple sets.
Also, shops that restore CSX3000's, and dealers of modern CSX Cobras, would be interested, if and when they knew Halibrand had some inventory of the wheels. But they won't indicate their interest here. If I remember correctly, from the previous thread, Halibrand wanted to run about 15-20 sets so we're not too far off from being 30-50% sold out. Heck, I might even buy a 2nd set, if it made the difference between them being made or not. You must look at the glass as half full. Don't be so pessimistic. (pssst, they'll never be made). :LOL: |

Even one who may purchase a few sets. We should be fine... |

23 sets? Well, the pedal will hit the metal when the deposit money is sought by Richard. ;) |
For what it is worth, I have several sets of mag wheels. Some are old and some are new. The new ones are either made by Dymag or M & A.
There are a couple of characteristics of mag wheels that you should be aware of. They leak air and they corrode. M & A has a process called impregnation to help with the leakdown issue. If you get the wheels, get them impregnated at M & A. This is different than paint. Race cars do not matter so much because the tire pressures are adjusted before each session but for a street car you want to have a wheels that does not leak worse than the tire. The corrosion eventually stops the leaks, but still you don't want corrosion ! Steel wool and WD40 will clean them up to a good race car standard. We do the wheels when we put new tires on them. If you are after the highly polished look, and your car has no patina, then you probably should stick with an aluminum wheel and get it clear coated. If you think a mag wheel looks great, like I do, then it is not necessary to do much more than WD40 it every few months or so. |
Dang, all this activity on here during my Christmas party! :cool:
We'll get it done. If not, I'll eat a bug. The purpose of the list wasn't make the whole list but add new folks, which we did, with a couple interested in multiple sets. I also have some interest in dealers who want to see a dealer cost. That will come available when Richard gets his costs down. Let's face it, a guy buying a 200k Aluminum Shelby CSX is gonna want mags.:p |

Can you tell me if the magnesium rims fit on an ERA with six pins? |
Quote:
Earlier posts in this thread say that ERA's require a different backspacing for the fronts. They are six pin. |

Phew! Just got back from the interview. All the guy wanted to do was take a break and get down to the local oyster bar so he could talk about LED's in the trunk light. :eek: Here's a set for an ERA for sale here on Club Cobra. ERA's require some machining to be done on the front as rodneym mentioned. http://www.clubcobra.com/classifieds...uct=3361&cat=4 |
rodneym & RodKnock
Thank you |
Yes, I'm back, baby.
Anyone's monetary status change over the holidays? Anyone who's on this list that needs to bail? Anyone who wants to join few, the proud... As soon as I'm back in the office next week I'm gonna make contact with Richard and see where we're at. I hope everyone had a great holiday. |
I'm feelin' the need for light weight new wheels.:MECOOL:

Confirm on list for two sets, presuming details are reasonable.
