Ron, you should consider a set of centerlock minilite-style wheels instead of the wires, which on your powerful car are likely to need frequent "tuning" and are pretty heavy. I suspect the wheels will initially be much more expensive than wires, but once you have them, you have them forever. (I have a set of minilite center locks on my MK III since 1969 and have onoy had to paint and balance them despite very aggressive use.)

I know there are companies in the UK that make them---some of the racers here in the US use them. And actually you'd do us all a favor if you come across a supplier who we might buy from, and you post that info on the site. cheers...sma
