I think Brant is running these on his car from what I saw at RRC.

I'm running the 7 version. But pulled fenders. No spacers

I'm running them...16x6 all 4 corners with no spacers and no fender pulling.

All right, that is what I wanted to hear. Re-finished wheels are available online for $125-135. Any side view pictures of wheels on cars?

I've got 7s on the back with stock Box size tires 225/50. Front 6s 205/55. Pulled fenders and a FLAPS 5/16 spacer or it rubs the inside. Same spacers on the front to fill the hole.
Before I got the rear pulled I fit the 7s on front and 6s rear.

I used to have 4 of the 7x16. Those weighed about 18.5 pounds.

What size tires are you running with theses wheels?

Posted by: jim912928 Oct 22 2014, 03:51 AM

Typo'd up above...I have 16x7's on all 4 corners. I run 205/55 michelins.

All of a sudden all the refinished wheels have disappeared on Ebay. Now the hunt will be on to find at 4th wheel at the same price. I picked up 3 refinished wheels for $375 shipped. They will be here Monday.

Those wheels look fantastic! You gave up on the other take offs you got?

Posted by: 914Sixer Oct 22 2014, 08:37 PM

Yes the set of Mahles I had are scrap metal. 4 out of the 5 were warped. Going with the 5 bolt.

Posted by: McMark Oct 22 2014, 09:56 PM
