Default Re: Torque Thrust Help

Agreed. I feel the TTOs are more correct if you're looking to recreate a 60s/70s ride.
The ARE magnesiun wheel had a goldish cast to the unmachined surfaces when new, whereas the aluminum versions were a light gray color. The magnesium wheels will be easy to identify. First off, they're WAY expensive IF and when you find them, but they also turn very dark gray very easily (the machined surfaces especially). REAL magnesium wheels take constant maintenance to keep them looking good.
As stated above; I don't recall ever seeing a magnesium Fenton wheel.
