Pro class rims?
« on: March 14, 2014, 02:03 PM »
Anyone know the difference in price between pro class rims and stock arayas?
We have all seen the home brew attempts but was in a machine shop today and out the corner of my eye I saw a lad doing a set on a nice bit of accurate machinery.

Would it be worth someone's while to go to this trouble and try and pads them off as original pro class?   ???

Sixteen thirty-two. What is that? A year?   No, it's your top score on Pole Position.

The original Pro-Class rims were simply drilled Araya 7X rims, I had a couple of pairs that you could see the 'Araya' engraving on them.

Yep that's why I asked, if they were done in a machine shop would anyone be able to tell the difference?
There was one than one set of rims leaning against the machine  ???
