As title, can't really find any 300mm wheels without or with only a tiny amount of dish to fit my snap off boss.
I want one that looks similar to my existing mountney wheel, not one of those crappy m range things everyone has. I'm 5ft 9ish (i think) but I have long legs, and I don't know if a 350mm wheel will piss me off. I'm dropping the column a tiny bit more than cheapo drop bracket height and moving my seat back a little more than standard and a little lower hopefully.

I've swapped back to a 350mm Wheel from a 320mm. It feels so much better, especially with 4.5 degs caster and torque steer seems far more controllable.

Yep. I run a 320 on the nimbus, which is rear drive, I wouldn't run it on a mini.

350 is the better choice.

Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

the design shows a distinct lack of imagination,
talk about starting off with a clean sheet of paper, then not bothering to fucking draw on it,lol

I'm mainly concerned about swirl in the runners caused by the tangential entry.
