• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Thought id throw this out there since it happend to me and my 09 phantom that has 6 spoke wheel. When i took a wheel off today I didnt catch that the spokes on the rim protrude out from the wheel SOOOO if you let them fall over th eVERY soft aluminum will EASILY SCRATCH!!!!:yikes:. Make sure you are careful when taking these wheels off your spyder and lay them down spokes up

The three spoke wheels have spokes that stick out even farther. Good advice! ......and also watch driving too close to those curbs.
 
My rims got scuffed by having to shoehorn the Spyder into a trailer that was only 60 inches wide. The tires fit easily but the spokes sticking out past the tires hit on either side. :(

I hit the cables on my trailer ramp, too. It is wide enough, but my aim was poor. Hard to look where you are backing and at the front wheels at the same time. Now I cover the cables with foam tubing. Split swimming pool noodles work wonders!

Same thing happen to us with our stock wheels. Our trailer is just over 60" wide.
