yeah. got the backs on already just need to do the fronts.

Altho saying that the back sits exactly the same as it did on the shocks and springs and its right the way down, so not sure it its 100mm or 80mm kit.

how you getting on with that plate anyway you been pulled yet?

did wide steels paint them for you? or did you do it yourself? whats the quality like if widesteels did it mate? I'm intrested in getting mine done now

Yeah widewheels done them for me. the quality is pretty good a few imperfections in the wheel and paint but there only really minor. mine took slightly longer to finish them expected took about 3 months but was worth the wait.

Niiiice I'm going with 175/50s on my 13x8 bands.

If everyone liked it it wouldn't be cool :p

As previously stated Avon do ACB10s rated up to 13x10... but expect to get through a few sets quite quickly as they're uber soft.

My excel sheet makes it ET-1.45.

basically nowt!

The offset is how far the hub face is from the centreline of the wheel. You change the centre line of the wheel you change the offset.

Widewheels no longer paint the wheels. Ian's and Dan's wheels where the last ones to be sent out painted.

The wheels are sealed in primer after the banding and are sent out like that. We can supply contacts where you can have them powdercoated or painted but we do not get involved in physically doing then . . Sorry

There is too much time and expense involved in painting them and widewheels decided it was time to stop it and let the customer sort it out themselves that way they can get them done how they want.

hmmmmm that stretch is fucking ridiculous, glad your rolling on them not me, but if you blew a tyre out and swerved into me on the motorway i wouldnt be best pleased and mr breaker bar would make its way to your head haha

seriously tho my mate was running 195/45s on a 9 (on some steffanys i sold him) and within three days he'd taken a chunk out the lip in a pothole and then his tyre came away from the rim when he was doing just over 80 ont motorway, managed to slow down to a stop on the hard shoulder with no real damage but would have been a whole lot worse mid corner...

he had to limp home on a gay space saver too haha

they look awesome mate, good effort

Lurve the strech dude, looks uber cool and I'm a tad jealous!

Wheels look mint, stretch is too much for me though :thumbsdown:

But saying that, they look fucking awesome on the car :thumbsup:

Looks mad Dan! whats it like to drive?

Dunno yet time havnt driven it. only done one side finger tight couldnt get my wheel brace in the dish :lol: :lol:

rofl at the anti social uber dish - i dont dig the brace foo'

hahaha class didnt see the pic of them on the car, deffo stick too far out on the front and back tho small amount of arch rolling should suffice without cracking the paint

have you have the arch lips cut out yet?

Edited by grungeisdead

well besta' luck with that stretch mate... i think you will be needing the arches fetteling soon.. wel before you swop to the inevitable wider tyres :D

  • Author

nope no arch work as of yet. think I'm gonna need a bit if i got lower its not to bad at the moment though.

I got tyre leak though (suprise supirse) so need to sort that out.
