Set of Mike Barnby R500 wheels


Slipper man

Recommended Posts

Set of four MB magnesium wheels including wheel nuts (these are specific to MB wheels). I am not certain of the exact size (I think they are 6" front/ 8" rear), but they are the standard-fit wheels from an R400/ R500. Good condition and will have been freshly crack tested prior to collection. Not suitable as track day wheels - MB wheels are only recommended for road use.

 

Looking for £500 for the set. Lying near Caterham in Surrey.

🤔 *confused* 🤔 *confused*

 

My current pair (which are overdue a crack testing) were originally on Richard Ince's R500 and have covered many miles of JCC racing, nevermind the trackdays he did and I have done with them since.

Where do you get the info that they are only suitable for road use 🤔

 

This does not affect my desire to purchase *thumbup*

 

 

Keep off the straight and narrow *tongue* 😬

Just a personal opinion. I have seen a couple fail on track (I had one do that to me last year) and personally would not be happy using them on a circuit any more. As you no doubt realise, lots of people do use them on circuits, but I wouldn't myself, and would feel bad not making any buyer aware of my concern. I have no worries about road use though.
