Did anyone see the set of used rear chrome rims that sold on ebay a month or so ago, that were chrome with red striping on the inside of them. Just wondering if they are available anywhere else. Would have looked pretty good on a 350x I thought but the auction ended while I was at work. Haven't seen that type before. Chrome with red stripes on the inside.
Thanks

What atc were the rim originally intended for. What do they work best on? I just thought the red design in it would look good on a 350x or any with red plastic. Is there a benefit to a two piece rim like that?
Thanks

those rims your speaking of were 3x100 bolt pattern. atc 70,90 and possibly early 250r. i guess they could have went on a tri moto with that lug pattern too. they were BAPP wheels, slightly different than the turbo rims. i have a full set of the turbo's in red. it wont be to long and you'll see them show up on a big bore 110 or a suspended 185.
