Changing out spoke rims to cast rims 10 Months, 1 Week ago  
I have a 2000 roadie with spoke rims and i'm looking to swap them out to cast rims.

Are they a bolt on front/ rear, rotors, bearings etc?

Re:Changing out spoke rims to cast rims 10 Months, 1 Week ago  
Do you have cast rims already? If not are your spokes in good shape and are you close to Indiana? I would be in the market to trade. I have a 2002 Silverado with Cast rims and wouldn't mind trading for some spokes, if it can be done without a large investment in parts.
