    Bought a used Radical with two sets of wheels. One set has a bent wheel. Does anyone know a good source for wheel shells?

    Radical East (somewhere in FL?) or Radical West in NV would be my first call. second stop would be the classifieds in Grassroots Motorsports, and/or the SCCA or NASA forums.

    not sure I'd track a radical with a bent/repaired wheel.

    btw congrats on the car, it's a beast. :D

    Mike Barnby in the U.K. makes very light wheels which are much sought-after in the Caterham community (which is all about light weight). Very much a "man in a shed" operation - he is always busy, and lead times can be long. He never seems to respond to e-mail, so phone instead for best results. He can also do aluminum centers if special ordered.

    Not 100% sure, but I believe Radicals are fitted with wheels from Image as new.
