    Relacing 18in wire wheel with 17in ring?

    Has anyone replaced the ring of their wire wheels with a 17inch ring?

    In the dirtbike world lots of people do this to run street tires on dirtbike (supermotards)

    If possible I would like to know where we can buy the rings and the spokes or where we can sent ou wheels to get them done... ans the... hmm... cost

    By "ring" do you mean the protecter strip that goes in the middle of the inside of the rim and covers the spoke heads?

    You can respoke with chrome for a few $100. You can respoke with stainless for a lot more $$
