917K Center-Lock Magnesium Wheels - After Chromate

One Pair / Size: 10.5 x 15

One Pair / Size: 12 x 15 https://pbase.com/9146gt/image/160813527

These are two pairs of 917K Center-Lock wheels I've had in storage for several years. The Magnesium left unprotected would start to develop the usual surface rust so I decided to treat all four wheels with the Chromate process. The wheel barrel centers were epoxy coated to further protect the inside of the wheel once mounted with racing rubber.

By the way, the chromate work comes from Gary Arentz, an old racer himself. Here is Gary (center) with his crew https://pbase.com/image/164198318 standing behind Gary's McLaren. Gary at the wheel of his other rocket! https://pbase.com/image/164198539
