Rogers Rim Question

Posts: 520 Threads: 167

So it seems I am unable to find the rim for a 14" tom that I need. I need to buy a new rim until the day comes that I find one.

What rim should I buy to be closest to the original? 2.3mm?

Any help is appreciated.

I don't have a micrometer,but I do have a 1967 Rogers kit,and the rims feel substantial,and pretty stiff,I would say 2.0-2.03 def heavier than 1.6 1.08 IMO.

Well, no one is arguing you, so I guess you are correct! Haha, thanks for the help!

I've got a couple of 60's Rogers kits and the rims measure 1.8 mil give or take a mil.
