Are You A Wheel Whore? Show Us Your 3-Piece Wheels

What are the offsets ghery? They look incredible.

[Jeremy]

Haha, just worked some of my magic on it to get the rears to fit. Tried to do this without sacrificing my alignment with 2.5* of camber in the rear.

18x9.5 front, 18x12.5 rear

Epic setup, Gary! You could fit a midget (PC: little person ) inside a mounted rear.

What are the specs of the halves and offset?

i'm pretty sure that the wheel on the right in that photo is a shot of the inner barrel of what appears to be the other front wheel. now let's see those rears!!!

pretty badass nonetheless!

I think you're right.

[Ghery]

Thanks guys, appreciate it

I can't give out the specs, that'll be my little secret haha

It took a while to figure out a setup that would clear my brakes actually. CCW gave up a few weeks in saying it was impossible. I figured out a configuration that would work a couple months ago.


Picture on the cart has a rear wheel on the left and a front on the right. I was trying to show the full polish job. The wide lens make it look weird though.

You bastid! I've always knew that 12" + was doable on these cars just hadn't got around to actually doing it. You have given me more motivation though.

Fixed.

Fixed.

What size tires are you running on them and how rolled are your fenders?

[ClubSport332ti]

AIYEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!! Help me dear lord for I have pitched a tent en mi pantalones.

Game Over!!!

[GB5416]

The rear offsets have to be about 6 and the fronts around, what? 35? The real secret to this setup is in your tire sizing. Even without the massive widths these wheels look awesome with AW.

don't see the fascination with kids these days and their stanced out stretch and poke look.

[hexagone]

I need to see the rears at different angles before judgement.

[rj23xpress]

TC Kline 60mm stud conversion, locking wheel nuts from Evasive Motorsports. Stud conversion is a huge benefit when you change wheels often.

Full polish Schmidt VN-Lines:





BBS E28 Mags:

[Itsablurr]

Those are the same BBS Motorsport wheels as used on the Loaded M3... Second time I've ever seen them, and a slightly different kinked spoke / deep hub geometry than the E28. They've been referred to as BBS GT Splits by the owner of the Loaded car, but I'm not sure if they have an E-code model designation if they're a precursor to or variant of the E28. They were discontinued in 2006, however. Magnesium alloy centers etc etc.

BBS GT's are different.



The ones above just look like a variation of the e28. I dunno.

[Itsablurr]

Yea, I was under the impression that the "GT Splits" label was an informal nickname of some sort... unfortunately, couldn't get an actual model id from the owner of the Loaded car. They are supremely bad ass NLA wheel, though...
