Re: new from IFI

These wheels look amazing. I'm big on reducing weight, and these wheels are way lighter than anything we could manufacture on our own. These are definitely a product we'll be considering after we see the game rules.

As for these wheels being placed in the kit, I'm leaning towards no. Talking to John, it seems like IFI just got in the tooling they need for the bearing holes. It seems a little late in the game to put something into production for 1150 teams, for the KOP. Especially since I believe the kits are being shipped relatively soon. I highly doubt these wheels will be in there.
