    WTB: wheels for Duc 800ss

    Stockers are ok as long as the rear is 5.5". Looking for a set of rain / DOT wheels. My current stock wheels have a 4.5" rear, i'm looking for the same set up as my Marvics.
    PM me if you know of anything - thanks!

    Joel the 160 rain worked great on the stock 4.5" rim. It never gave any problems in the turns and seemed like it had enough grip for acceleration out of the turns as well. You need to make a spacer for your sprocket but that is cake. Give me a call. Cheers, Steve

    I don't mind having the 4.5 rear for the rains, and I have made the spacer. I really want the wider wheel for DOTs and possibly use them for rains as well.

    Steve, you showed me how well your setup worked on Sunday. Nice job this weekend - you were flying!

    Oh I misunderstood, I thought it was just for rains. Let me look in the garage, there might be a spare 5.5" stocker somewhere.

    Too late Steve, I bought a 5.5 rear on ebay last night. Thanks anyway.

    Need a stock 3 spoke Brembo front to complete a set if anyone has one.
