do you mean -25/-27 by reverse mounting? ---

> [@bing](#): > > do you mean -25/-27 by reverse mounting? I don’t think so…to the best of my knowledge reverse mounting BBS LM only reduces the offset by roughly 15mm so starting with 40+/42+ would net to 25+/27+… > **[BBS LM Reverse Face Mounted - StanceWorks](https://stanceworks.com/forums/forum/style/wheels-tires-brakes/15064-bbs-lm-reverse-face-mounted?t=15338)** > > If it has to do with wheels, tires or brakes it goes here.

^ you’re about right, you’re only moving the wheel the width of the face no including back spacing/pad size. Bing, if you were to reverse mount as in FLIP the face and turn it the other way (AKA barrel becomes lip, lip becomes barrel) then yea something like that. But not the method on a face reverse. ---

oh so you’re just bolting it in behind the lip rather than in front. any pics of what that looks like? that thread needs before and after shots. you could make a spacer and use longer bolts too. i thought about doing this a long time ago with some other wheels i had. ---

i guess, i thought the right was just the centre section removed from a wheel… looks like floor behind it rather than the wheel shell ---

here’s a better pic of regular mounting VS reverse mounting ( the guy only has a few bolts applied to the reverse mounted wheels for test purposes only). ![http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e155/IlluminatingConcepts/Wheels/DSC07284.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/9/d/9d4f76e1e759ee4598c80a933b04af9711483f20.jpeg) ---------- Post added at 08:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 AM ---------- > [@slidesquad](#): > > are these still fs? if so email me at [raylo\_@hotmail.com](mailto:raylo_@hotmail.com) I already contacted you through my kijiji ad and when you inquired back on Aug 17th…please check your email or PM me if you require further info/making an offer. ---

Why don’t people reverse mount them all the time? Looks kind of lame regular mounted… Is it for fitment purposes? ---
