saph wheels
I have allways liked the original sapph wheels. Has anyone got a clue höw much would it cost to have custom 17 inch with the original design? Would there be enough intrested people to have a group buy on them to bring the price down. Also, how many buyers would you need to have a cast mold for them? i have no clue of theese things maybe someone else has?

early ones or later ones? i reckon the shark tooth ones would look good, as long as they fit a decent pair of brakes behind them though.

think diamond cut 17" lattice wheels would look good, the sharktooth alloys remind me a bit of the ok bk299 in that size?!

Group buy, £900 and in white, silver or black and I bet you have a bunch of buyers.
Although you would be smart to buy 5.
