hey guys,

I'm starting my second year HNC project at college this year, and i intend to manufacture a bolt-in swingarm and extended drive kit to fit a 360 wheel to a Suzuki Bandit....

now i know you think im crazy...

but im after a 360 wheel, with or without tyre, (or approx 12 - 14") as i need it to measure up and eventually fit it to the bike....

anyone got one?? or know anyone who'd be willing to sell one to an out and out nutter??

i appreciate comments on the idea as well folks!!

see ya!

I checked the image wheels site when me old man mentioned you were planning this. Surely your going to need a split rim so you can get the offset you need? Your not going to get a stock car wheel in that width, largest you might find would be Porsche or BMW rear wheels. Generally about 9" x 17 or 18. I thought a 360 tyre went on a 15" wide rim? I found an 18" x 15" rim by image, but, brace yourself, its £442 quid a wheel! Found some formula 1 rims at a swapmeet, they were 14x 15" but £400 a pair and too small diameter for a bike!
