They have solid aluminum ones and carbon fiber ones here, but I've never checked on a price. Not sure if they're Douglas either. Everyone usually does the TZM upgrade.

You need to contact Team Calamari. They have every thing you need for your YSR.

I looked and could not find any Mitchell aluminum wheels from Lockhart Phillips. Give me the web site if you will. Thanks!

Here's the link:
http://user856609.wx8.registeredsite...ub3.asp?id=342 They aren't cheap, but seriously, put together a quick racer resume, send it in (now's the time to send these out!) and they'll give you a price break. It's worth doing, even if you don't race much.

I am part of their team privateer program. I assume they are out of YSR alum wheels. Last year got a .pdf of all their clearance items. They only had 3 front wheels left at $80 a pop. I'm sure they are gone by now.

On a scale from 1-10 (10 being most difficult) how hard is the conversion? TCR says it takes them 8 hours to do the conversion after doing a few of them. This will be my first try. Do you have to use a TZM front end?

Good luck with the upgrade... If I can find a cheap YSR I'd definitely do this swap as well, TZM wheels look much better... Let us know how it goes, I'm not 100% sure but I don't think you have to swap the front end, one of the other guys on here will give you definite info.
