Hey, how much are these alloy 4 spots just out of curiosity. I am not a
wanker, nor am i doing 300 clicks down past my house, but i am intending to
race my 1200 coupe in the future. I am in the process of fitting a 10" disc
landcruiser 4 spot setup and it does weigh a tonne. All tho im sure it
will be worth it as 1200 disc's are in a word - shit.
