If you can find somebody who can tell you if there is a stock-wheel swap, past that point you should be able to just call a rim manufacturer like Excel and see if they can make you some rims then get the right spokes (perhaps another 'issue') and you might be able to have a relatively stock-ish set-up.

PS> I have NO idea about spoke::mag swaps...but you're at the right place and the weekend is upon us. Somebody will come to the rescue. Perhaps "rstnick". This will be an interesting build you have.

yes they can be swapped as long as you keep same style brakes,happy now?:laugh:

IF you can find early kz wire wheels and have them relaced to aluminum rims or any width you'de like and you could go with 17 or 18. I would do 18 all around if given the choice.

seen a few sets of wire wheels go on uk e-bay this last month or so. there out there and i'll find a set over the winter and have them relaced with some 18" rims.
thanks for the answers
