TALON SPRINTER WHEEL FEATURES
Load Capacity - With the massive weight of modern Sprinter builds we felt it was time to build a wheel that was both lightweight but also drastically increased the load-carrying capacity of the wheel. In basic terms, we wanted something stronger that could take the abuse of a 4 tonne van pounding the dirt offroad and on. Here are some specs:
- Owl Talon - 1905kg (Talon wheel weight 14.5kg)
- BR Barstow - 1225kg
- BR Arsenal - 1180kg
- Method 701 - 1633kg
- (Wheel weight 28lbs)
Offset - The offset of a wheel, in basic terms, is how much it sticks out the side of the van. All Sprinter wheels are a positive offset, and the lower the number, the farther the wheel will stick out the side of the van. By having a wheel with a lower offset, you widen the track of your van, making it more stable and less prone to tipping. This is a massive advantage when offroading in a tall vehicle like a Sprinter Van.
Sprinter Wheel Offsets:
- Owl Talon - 30mm (wider track, lower center of gravity for the van)
- BR Barstow - 38mm
- BR Arsenal - 38mm
- Method 701 - 50mm
