Here are mine pre repair. The crack is at 12 o'clock. The road rash is from 3 years ago. I hope that I can tell the repaired wheel from the one that is just getting refinished.

Do you have a link?
Hey, if you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space.

Actually, that sounds like a decent price for a spare...

I didn't want to make any comments about his price, but $2400 is a little rich for my blood. I paid $1500 with a good set of Bridgestone S-O2A four months back.

Good luck to him, nonetheless.

Simon, thanks for the suggestion.

I'm currently a part of an international consortium of Rennlisters with a set in our target we plan to purchase and divide up... If that falls through, we'll reconsider.

Cheers, Jeff
