<< Has anyone priced a 13x6 Minilite wheel for a Spridget? I just got a quote
 for $195.57 each. The price included lug nuts
 and centre caps. Shipping was extra. The quote is from Mainstreet Motorsport
 in CT (http://www.ctbw.com/mainstreet/). Does anybody know of another
 source?

I don't know why this message was sent to me.  I figure I might as well
share it with people who may care about these wheels.
