Lol I made him a cheeky offer but it sold before he could decline it. Did you buy the front too?

Front was a standard wheel but I've sourced a front now to match

Re: Tis getting silly now
i think i can beat all these though
around a year ago there was a wheel listed from D&K for a NC35 - but it was clearly not a normal wheel as it was a 5.5x17 item wearing the delkevic stamp on the inner spoke.
now yes they did do the 35 wheels as we all know, but it sure looked like a RC30/45 item and a 5.5" wheel ?
some may remember they did embark in 2005 - 7 on getting some RC30 wheels made from china. using the 45 wheel and bringing it down to a 5.5" width for the RC30
then the credit crunch kicked in and the project was shelved.
After some discussions with them i was aware they had 3 prototypes from china.
one was tested to distruction, the other sold, and the other vanished - until a year ago when i scored it for £260 for the RC30
After sending to Steve (ex dymag) for testing and coating, sure enough the wheel was perfectly true, well made and defect free.
It is however slightly heavier than the standard RC30 wheel but it works so well with proper tyres.

Re: Tis getting silly now
indeed there were pal, a couple of members pointed it out.
It does feel heavier in the back than the 45 wheel for sure, but handles so much nicer oddly enough
