you can definately tell the difference with the type three wheels on a 240. they give the sweetest ride and handling.

when i had kids driving my 240s i always made sure there were steel wheels on the front wheels in the winter as curbing one in a slide will bend the aluminum ones very quickly.

and they are kindof rare.

lots of folks dont even know they exist. folks who should know!
