    Default Would this be a viable product?

    I was wondering if there would be a market for a reproduciton of a TRX wheel except that it could take stock 15" or maybe 16" tires?

    I imagine the only people likely to buy them would be people wanting to retain the factory look or someone trying to restore a Fox body to original.

    I would love a 16-17 inch trx for my RS, alot of people love them, but so many move on because of size and price....

    Should be. I have heard of people cutting the centers out of a TRX wheel and welding them into an eglish sized wheel.

    I had also heard the repros were supposed to be out at some point but that was a couple of years ago I think...so no idea what's up with that.

    Not some much willing to do so with TRX wheels but I think it would be awesome if they made a 5 Lug 17x8 inch 10-hole wheel repro. I would buy them in a second for that modified but stock looking appearance. It would also be nice to be able to have the stock(ish) wheels but be able to upgrade to the 13 inch cobra brakes. I think 17 inch 10 holes would look awesome and they would be great for shows.

    they did the same with the pony wheels. so I'm sure there would be a market for the trx's

    I'm not a fan of the look of TRX wheels, regardless of what size they are.
