Default Re: minilite wheels

Leigh
The two solid raised blank bosses on our 15"x 8" T/A Minilite are alternative locations for the valve stem. Since our new aluminum T/A wheel has been modeled after our vintage magnesium competition wheel we duplicated this style. The Trans-Am wheels valve stem is further in between to spokes to prevent it from being knocked off in competition. All other Minilites have the valve stem out on the rim edge, on the raised boss area.

David Livian in Australia played a big role in helping me produce this aluminum T/A Minilite. I needed a 200 wheel order before the Minilite UK factory would tool-up for this wheel. David kicked in a 100 wheel order which helped me launch this project faster.
