JamieP Posted June 7, 2010 Author Share Posted June 7, 2010 Have u spoken with Image yet mate about what u want? Had a few emails with them, looks like they may be able to do it, just need to confirm they will clear my brakes, i have another option if this is a no go. The SSR SP3 is similar to my advans in style, i could just buy a set of rears 11.5x18 +43 and powdercoat to match my fronts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you gone off the banding idea like bud, did you find out if the wheels once banded would stand upto the abuse of an 850rwhp car?

Cant find anyone that will do it mate, and also i wont get them wide enough, the outside edge needs pushing out aswell to get the width i want.

Jamesy Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 ok cheers mate - when i spoke to them they want all different dimensions (A, B and C) before committing to anything and apparently a 5-6week wait. very nice wheels though!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pming now You need about 40-50mm to get them on, i think wide arches are the only option, im thinking something like what wayne did with his, keep the stock body look, do it over the winter.
