Merc Steel Wheels on eBay

Post by HarryMann »

Expensive (silly) starting bid and they're the ET31 ones, but look in good nick. Think they're 6" not 6.5" like the other ET37 Mercs steels

1 day to go... North East (£37-00 postage)

Oh, I think we could indeed discuss this... all night :!:

12mm on the track (0.7%) make it noticeably more stable*

Vs

205/225 tyres bulge more on 6" rims threatening the sidewalls more :?:

(Outside face of rim in exactly same place for both rims)

* That's if wheel centreline is true running track rather than some 'effective' running line when cornering/leaning probably somewhere between the centreline and the outside edge of tyre :idea: :?:
