upgrades! ATV rims!!

Following in the footsteps of Van and Coolbreeze I decided to get some ATV rims for my bug.

These rims are from DWT racing in the U.S.

Very nice!

Just to let others know... If you move up to a 10" rim, the rubber is way cheaper and way more options for tread.

I have the exact same rims for my rears Unfortunately I had a tire shop mount them the first time and they crushed one of them with their machine They ended up reimbursing me for the price of a new one. Lesson learned the hard way. I enlisted the help of an ATV dealer for the next mount job Love the dust caps!

Hey Redsky. What does the Dominator weigh with that setup?

Interesting question. I don't know really. I'd say it's gained a little weight. Perhaps around an extra 7lbs. The new rims weigh about the same as the old standard 8x8 plastic rims. The new front rim quite a bit lighter.

Its the hubs that are weighty. Once you bolt those up they're noticeably heavier to handle.

That's a real shame. You must have been gutted. I'm glad you found someone who knows what they're doing. My local tyre fitters are old school and run by same family since 1936 providing great customer service. Nearly everything is done by hand. Thanks!

Beautiful ride! I was looking at your photobucket stream and realized I was drooling all over myself. :D

Thanks all.
