So how tough would it be to make insulated wheels for the Ruby? I'm curious. ahs anyone even tried? I've considered it from time to time but hadn't got as far asking here if anyone has done it?

Gordon,
I had not considered even insulating out at the tire. Thanks! What material should I make the sleeves from? The machining costs are negligable as I'll be doing it at work in the prototype shop as I get time. I've not machined anything since college though so I'm sure to spend more on materials and nothing on labor but my time.

Thanks!

Makes me wish I had more than the loupe from my Grandfather when he was a jewler. Sounds liek the easiest way at thsi point is to do the surgery to the spokes then? I may try to contact Accucraft to see about a replacement set in case I screw them up or to try the butchering on the "rims and tires" but that can wait. The spoke surgery is relatively simple project requiring the least amount of skills and supplies really.

Thanks Guys!

Chas
