      A contender with CB Design and Slotting Plus has emerged, with 5-spoke and BBS style wheels, including many in anodized colours.

      Both Air/open nubs/ribs and full ribs are offered.  Many are the correct size for Slot.IT F30s and F22/N22s  (e.g. in the 15d x 10w range)

        I love those kind of wheels that do not need inserts.  I have lost an insert or two and it is a pain.  I also takes care of the axle and insert interference, and allows truing with out removing the insert, and losing an insert during a race.

          I purchased two pairs of these wheels for my Datsun.  They are the mini lite versions that are the correct 8.5mm width size.  They look good and make it so I don’t have to worry about inserts.

            Ok – so we know who’s going to podium, technical stats wise, for the Monte.

            Looks like the Datsun-240-Mm  will also be a contender for the Concours!

          At 4-years old in Pensacola I repaired my steering linkage on my Ford Pedal-car. Dad later converted this car to a Blue Angel with ailerons and elevators with a working "stick/yoke"; the rudder was controlled by the steering wheel. I like all motorsports - I grew up going to a NASCAR Feeder track with Sportsman and Modified classes, and was lucky to attend drag races in 1970 at Orange County Raceway. My first solder-iron was a Christmas gift at 9yo; I modified T-Jets to be AFX spec before AFX Cars were in local stores. I rebuilt a few tractor & car (SIMCA) engines plus transmissions by 15yo (I still have my ring-compressor and valve spring tool) I am a former mountain and road bike geek & perennial sound engineer.
