I will be starting the build of my car soon and intend to totally cover my wheels ....... before I start to make any sort of wheel cover I wondered if anyone out there knew of someone who has maybe done this already, took some molds and sells that sort of product

This is the basic photo of the car , the wheels will be probably be at least 15 inch rims, the tires are not decided yet but will be on the thinner side to offer the least profile.

First you will need a rule book, 2nd. where do you plan on running,on the salt or one of the paved airports. The rules are very specific in LSR on all venues. Let us know.

I'm guessing you'll be joining the VW contingent at the World of Speed. My choice would be the ribbed 3.5x15 M&H drag racing tires front and rear (22" overall) on a 3-1/2 to 4-1/2" wide wheel. I'd guess they'd be good to 200 on that lightweight machine. Finish off with Moon discs on the outside and fabricated plates on the inside. And would look like this . . .
