Anybody know where to find Speedline Magnesium wheels in the USA and Canada?

Hell, I cant even find lugs for mine! My FD sits in the garage waiting for the machined lugs to be made. They're nice Italian wheels, but I'd stay away.

I have a set of the 1908 Magnesiums that I haven't installed yet. I got them direct from Speedline's US distributor a few months ago. The distributor said they only keep one set in the country at a time...I bought the most recent set, so who knows if they have replaced it yet.

Anyway, whatever you do, don't buy the rims from a re-seller. They will mark them up at least $600. Even from the distributor they are pricey at $800 per rim...ouch.

I have the business card of the distributor back at work. I can try to locate it tomorrow when I get in.

Thanks for the info. Either of you guys hit a good sized pothole yet? Kinda wondering how strong those wheels are. Don't think I've seen a wheel that looks better on an FD.

Why did you need custum lugs, Toadman?
