Bowler 'Motorsport' wheels?
Can someone tell me what the difference is between a Bolwer 'Lightweight' 18 inch wheel and a Bowler 16 inch 'Motorsport' wheel please?

Aside from one being bigger than the other!

Bowler only have two wheels, 16" and 18", in the three colours black, white and anthracite. To my knowledge they have only ever used the 16" for the Defender Challenge, although their own website says both sizes are TUV tested and have been used for the challenge (perhaps cut and paste?) which is perhaps why Flatdog have highlighted the 16" as the Motorsport Edition? No other reason as far as I'm aware and have never seen Bowler announce any special editions.

But the two sizes are exactly the same tech, except that the 18" look better. Not that I'm biased... Whistle

For competition use,, Better tyre availability in 16" to suit than 18"

But as said, 18" work for me Smile
