Hi John,
I sent an email off to Raceways, who do the Wheel spinners, they apparently operate from Burton on Trent & import the spinners & hubs from the States. I was querying the use of the thread mount adaptors on our wheels as they state for use on alloy ones. I will post their reply on here.
I wondered about postage & import taxes from America but now I know their location, it would seem nothing to worry about.
I see you are using the thread mount on (which I prefer), wondered, just how secure they are with the grub screws onto metal rather than alloy? Apart from milling off 1 mm, were there any other mods you had to do?
Dear Ian,
firstly we are based in UK (Burton on Trent) but import these from USA so normal post etc. The reason we list these for alloy is you need the depth of metal to accept the insert of the adapter so grub screws can secure, a steel wheel is usually too thin. If the mounting area on the wires is deep enough and has a flat surface to take the grub screws they will work. Several customers take these and use OK or adapt to fit there wheels. We only had a few sets of these last week, but have just sold out again, seem popular at the moment. We will bring some more over in new year.
If you are unsure of fit etc, please give me a call and I will be glad to go over it with you.
