It will be interesting to hear how the disc wheels work in a strong cross wind as well.
 Might be like the good ole days with bump steer, just more steer than bump. I shall report the effects next month or the next if it hasn't been windy. I hope its not too bad otherwise Morgan will have to do a re-design on the new Ford engined 3 wheeler

The new M3W is reportedly "entering the jet age". I think we need some moon disc hubcaps! ![[Linked Image]](https://cdn3.bigcommerce.com/s-1gddtzsh48/product_images/uploaded_images/racing-disc-po-jal-bg.jpg)

Another question, is it possible to purchase a set of those wheels?

I've seen a car at Krazy Horse with a very similar if not the same so maybe? Best to drop an email to MMC and ask nicely (beg sometimes helps) I also saw recently a 3W with disc wheel with a gap near the top of the wheel. Sure it was on Instagram but once seen I can never find anything again on there.

That flat profile is what I liked about the looks, besides very easy to clean :-) I will politely ask MMC to see what they say. Thanks Peter.

I must admit I am really looking forward to cleaning them, the hubs do need a squirt of AFC50 after each wash, as advised by the aftercare handbook (leaflet) kindly supplied by Chris G.

I've not had any problem with wind and the wheels pushing around. I don't think with the weight upfront and two wheels it has any of the problems that a solid wheel on a motorcycle causes.
I've also not had a chance to remove the wheel and check the weight.
I will say they are super easy to clean. It's a solid painted surface, I wash it just like I would a painted panel. Hit it with a little instant detailer when I pull up to a meet.
