Anyone have access to one of these beauties? Looking to get some measurements from the 1:1 rim in the foreground if at all possible. Any help is appreciated. Click to enlarge LMK, thanks!! Jordan

Isn't that the same rim that comes with some of the Reynard kits?

No, sir. The Reynard kit had the 16pt flat spoke BBS rims that debuted around '94 (forgive my dates in this thread if not 100% accurate - feel free to correct). I don't remember noticing this 14pt curved spoke style rim before around 2007 when the DP01 first came on the scene. Now Andretti and KV run them up front always which means the last two 500 winners were running them. Curiously, the teams run them with OZ's in rear - which strikes me as an odd combo to mix manufacturers!? I've even seen them once on the fronts of a Coyne car recently, too, but they usually run OZ's F&R. No one, from what I have seen, currently runs this style on the rears. Greenlight did them in 1:18 for the DP01 only but the spokes have no depth to really help me out. I have a few pictures from Barber where I could guess at shapes but was hoping for something more definitive. At the time I took pics, I was expecting to use a 3D mesh as my basis but once I compared pics to that shape, I knew it was best to start over. Unfortunately, it has meant the project has been way more challenging than I expected when picking it originally Jordan

Jordan,
PM me with exactly what dimensions you're looking for. I'm using 2 of those rims for my coffee table.
Also, Andretti runs BBS in the back, but they're the more "standard" style BBS.

I believe those are what we use for the tow tires on our car. What exactly do you need?

Sorry I can't help out! Up at Pocono all black BBS, all the time. If you want more pictures I have many more! Jim
