Thank you for the positive feedback! I'm pleasantly surprised by how popular the RAD 10 is, not only on PT applications, but on others as well.

We originally designed the RAD 10 as a track duty/pro-road race wheel.

Taking years of working with and supporting teams in Word Challenge, Grand-Am, IMSA, ALMS, Trans-AM, etc. we listed many important features for a race winning wheel design. Things like easy and quick handling for pit stops, radial stiffness, weight, lug pocket size, lug pocket orientation, material wall thickness, etc. We came up with a simple radial ten spoke design. After performing beyond expectations in testing (FEA, Lab & on Track) we added the sculpted spoke features to reduce weigh by 0.6lbs per wheel without sacrificing stiffness or strength.

Sometimes its best to go back to the basics and not to over think things.

Use designs that work and are proven winners!

Thanks again for your positive comments!
