just a note on magnesium wheels.
I personally consider them quite safe. Magnesium in wheel form is
very hard to start burning...(some friends of mine decided to have a
magnesium fire at a get together in upper Michigan a summer or two
ago and it took a lot of effort to get the 100lbs or so going, of
course then it was pretty spectacular...more details on request).
Anyway, I would not hesitate to use magnesium wheels, I know many
folks who race with them and I will be happy to take magnesium
wheels off the hands of those who would prefer not to use
them.
(preferably in 10" and/or 15" diameter to fit mini and porsche 8-) )
Minilites are being made again in Magnesium in several sizes. They
advertised in the current issue of Cars and Car Conversions. I
think in 10" diameter they cost 99GBP each.
