Re: Custom wheel making
Below is a link to some pics showing the evolution of the design we used from 2007-2010. We stopped doing it when the AM performance wheels became cheap enough and available in the right configuration so that we had no real gain from making our own.
The raw material cost on these was less that $5/wheel but not having to worry about the resources to make them is worth paying for wheels to us.
This is the driven version. We also made a live axle version.
