^ Why do you have flares and no offset?

You need some wheels and rubber for those flares.

bB2NER · 05-19-2011, 01:59 AM

It also looks like he drilled holes to mount those flairs. OUCH!

JumpmanYaris · 05-19-2011, 09:01 AM

All you need is some big ol specers

For a minute there, I thought you were Thirty-Nine.

aruester · 05-28-2011, 03:30 PM

These were FREE! Need to get them refinished but updated pics soon! This was just a fit test I did. 17" Katana Racing Type. Not exactly sure of the specs because like I said they were FREE and it seems Katana doesn't make this wheel anymore. Rubber is 215/40R17 Coopers(will upgrade after the Ring rubs these bald

)

bB2NER · 05-29-2011, 02:27 AM

Those should polish up nicely once you get that clearcoat off.
It looks like a bend at 5 o clock tho.

aruester · 05-29-2011, 09:35 AM

thanks for taking the time to look! The 'bent spot' is just a cosmetic blemish. It will scrub off with the clear coat. Any suggestions on taking the clear coat off without damaging the rest? I was just going to take them to a guy who will clean, balance/straighten, powder coat them for 75 euro a wheel.

bB2NER · 05-29-2011, 12:54 PM

If you are careful you can use some aircraft stripper on the lip area and keep it off the painted parts.
It's best to test a small area first to see if the clear will come off cleanly. If it does you have it made.

aruester · 05-29-2011, 01:13 PM

thanks for the suggestion but the clear is actually flaking on the entire wheel. I think they just need a good media blast. They are going to the shop tomorrow I think. Thankfully Germans don't have Memorial Day!

bB2NER · 05-29-2011, 01:23 PM

At 75 a wheel you might be better off just getting new 17" wheels for slightly more. There are many wheels for 100 and less in 17". Jus sayin.

coheed · 06-04-2011, 11:51 PM

Finally got rims for my car. Nothing special, but I like em. They're 15x7 et38 ICW's. I got them of a friend for $100.
