<html> <font size=3>This email is a query for leads about shops that make up wheels to a customer's specs. <br> <br> All referrals, references, and ideas welcome and solicited. <br> <br> There appear to be no wheels in size 6.5 x 16", bolt pattern 5 x 112, ET30 so my purpose is to see about creating a batch of them.<br> <br> I think the South African 15" wheels are perfect, but I am mounting a tire that is taller and narrower than the sizes available on a 15" wheel.</font><br> <div>________________________________________________________</div> <div>Derek Drew New York, NY & Washington, DC</div> <div>derekdrew@rcn.com<x-tab> </x-tab> 212-580-6486</div> <div>Email me for viscous couplings</div> <div>'90 Syncro Westfalia... </div> <div>...seen off-road at </div> <div><a href="http://users.rcn.com/derekdrew/Syncro_Madness_Area.htm" EUDORA=AUTOURL>http://users.rcn.com/derekdrew/Syncro_Madness_Area.htm</a></div> <div>Note: most valuable Vanagon sites on the planet (for owners) are:</div> <div> <a href="http://gerry.vanagon.com/cgi-bin/wa.exe?S1=vanagon" EUDORA=AUTOURL>http://gerry.vanagon.com/cgi-bin/wa.exe?S1=vanagon</a></div> <div> <a href="ftp://gerry.vanagon.com/pub/" EUDORA=AUTOURL>ftp://gerry.vanagon.com/pub/</a></div> <div> <a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Syncro" EUDORA=AUTOURL>http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Syncro</a> </div> <div> <a href="http://www.vanagon.com/" EUDORA=AUTOURL>http://www.vanagon.com</a> </div> <div> <a href="http://www.syncro.org/" EUDORA=AUTOURL>http://www.syncro.org</a> </div> <div>My refrigerator article: </div> <div> <a href="http://www.vanagon.com/info/articles/Refrigerator/Reefer_Madness.htm" EUDORA=AUTOURL>http://www.vanagon.com/info/articles/Refrigerator/Reefer_Madness.htm</a></div> <div>My article that shows how to deal with insurance companies: </div> <div> <a href="ftp://gerry.vanagon.com/pub/auto-insurance-madness.html" EUDORA=AUTOURL>ftp://gerry.vanagon.com/pub/auto-insurance-madness.html</a> </div> <div>To view Wolfgang's incredibly informative wheel article</div> <div> <a href="http://users.rcn.com/derekdrew/fitbigtiresonvanagon.htm" EUDORA=AUTOURL>http://users.rcn.com/derekdrew/fitbigtiresonvanagon.htm</a> </div> <div>To view Tim Smith's incredibly useful gearing calculator</div> <div> <a href="http://users.rcn.com/derekdrew/syncrotireandgearratios.xls" EUDORA=AUTOURL>http://users.rcn.com/derekdrew/syncrotireandgearratios.xls</a> </div> <div>To view some 16" Trailing Arms that enable much larger tires see</div> <div> <a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/syncro-org/files/Wheels,%20Tires%20%26%20Gearing/Wheel%20%26%20Tire%20Photos/16_Inch_Trailing_Arm.jpg" EUDORA=AUTOURL>http://groups.yahoo.com/group/syncro-org/files/Wheels%2C%20Tires%20%26%20Gearing/Wheel%20%26%20Tire%20Photos/16_Inch_Trailing_Arm.jpg</a></div> </html>
