Badass. Says they fit a 250r, but are 3 lug...

**SYKO** · 02-04-2009, 03:21 PM

those are wheel covers, and the first gen 250r's are 3 lug

**aaron7** · 02-04-2009, 03:27 PM

They don't look like covers to me...? How can you tell?

**Vealmonkey** · 02-04-2009, 03:38 PM

They are not wheel covers they are wheel halves. They are PCCC "turbo" wheels. And they do fit 3 bolt hubs. But most 3 bolt hubs fit alot of the later model trikes just as the 4 bolt 200x hubs fit the earlier 3 bolt trikes. Very old school and they were the wheel to have back in the day. The only thing cooler is if they would have had the knock off hubs and the 3 wing knock off nuts!

well thats what I ment wheel covers/wheel halves same thing. I kinda think there cool, I would polish them and repaint the insert whatever color to match the trike.

They were made in San Diego by the family of the boyfriend of the daughter of the lady who used to work at Johnson's ATC/Mini truck. Whew!!

They originally came in different colors. I have several different NOS red ones still in the boxes and I have some more used that are 4 bolt. I sent a set of 4 - 4 bolt rims to a board member on here that I hope will be making a debut soon.

For remanufactured resale I hope!!!!! Yes?

No, that boardmember is going to be installing them on one of the family trikes. Do you need a set? I think I have enough rim halves for front and rears for the 4 bolt (8 bolt holes total) rims. If you are interested I can get pictures after midnight when I get off work and send them to you.

Zilla, you might. I remember people use to make fun of turbo wheels. And Bruce still does! LOL Eric, maybe I should have said you know that lady! I don't want to upset your boss! ROTFLMAO

**Vealmonkey** · 02-05-2009, 07:52 PM

Freaksfix, I have some solid 2 piece aluminum rims too. Not sure of the maker though.

**freaksfix** · 02-05-2009, 10:02 PM

How much would you want for (4) of the Turbo halfs. Id like to run a full one in the front and then the halfs on the outside in the rear. Freaks
