Wheels are home for mounting 335/30/18 Michelin Pilots and then fitting on the car. The coating will be the last step. The final rim mounting width is 12.5". The lip depth is a cunt hair over 5".

That’s some nice work. I guess it would have been alot easier if the wheels had been 3 piece to begin with, you could have just ordered new shells. ---

I like the fact that you had them made wider than just buying new wheels, much respect. ---

> [@neurokinetik](#): > > That’s some nice work. I guess it would have been alot easier if the wheels had been 3 piece to begin with, you could have just ordered new shells. Not possible unless I was spending $4500 -$5000. Even then I was not getting the finish I was looking for. I reseached wheels for almost a year, literally. I found no styles that I liked that ALSO had the option of being 12 inches wide. I went through Weds, Work, Volk, Advan, SSR, you name it. VERY few manufacturers offer wheels that wide. My specifications were: Must be 12 inches or wider Must have at least a 5" lip Must be 5x114.3 Must be a offset that will clear large calipers. Must be a style that I like Must be finished in a way that I like These wheels HAD to be custom made. They were also a lot less then $5000. ---

335 … did I forget to mention that the wheels dont fit the car in its **current** layout. The car has to be widened by 2-3" on both sides to fit these monsters. Since this is NOT a tractor I will not be doing any gay flare bullshit. I will actually be reducing the current flares and widening the entire car. That was all part of my evil plan tho 🙂 ---
