Mike, what mod are you applying to the skinny MPIs to improve them?

    Hey Colin I have a pair. I'll get you the dimensions when I get home. They are really nice and very light. I still prefer the skinny MPI's with a modification. I've had great luck with them flying off of a very smooth grass field. Mike

  MPI makes a metal hub wheel that is pretty light but a little wider than the really skinny ones that would probably fit the CARF/ZN wheelpants.  Also it has a harder rubber ring around it so the soft foam does not wear as fast.

Maybe someone has a set on the list and can send you the width!
