shoehorn and some butter - it fits ![]() ![]() ![]() Group: Members Posts: 1,547 Joined: 23-January 06 From: Broomfield, CO Member No.: 5,463 Region Association: None |
So I like the look of the Fuch 5-bolts and want to put them on my car, but I need a deep backspace set. I was hoping to find out if anyone knows where to get them with the centers moved...
Want 15x9 with a 4-1/2" to 5" backspace and 15x10 with 5-1/2 to 6... maybe 15x11 with 6-1/2 to 7" if I can figure out how to squeeze them under the rearend flares. Apparently to even find Fuch wheels this size is nearly impossible, let alone with custom backspace. Stock I think is way to shallow/"dished". Thanks, Tim (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/help.gif) |

Andy, I totally agree that the Sheridan stuff is awesome. both his and Scott's are wide bodies, I have the standard body (a little narrower but not much)
I drove up to Paso Robles last month and have about 22 pictures of Sheridans car on a thumbdrive at the chassis shop right now (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) I am going to add the same size rear wing and uprights to my car - he said that made a huge difference on his speeds/times. I actually talked to Scott briefly about his car over the phone and I think it is for sale, just doesn't fit what I want to do (I am keeping stock doors and windshield wipers, etc for insurance/licensing purposes). In fact, I think you may have given me his phone # (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) on the pelican board a couple of months ago (?) That car makes me want to paint mine silver too. Dammit! I...just...can't...decide...what color to paint this car (if you have seen the flat black dilemna I am having post ) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/aktion035.gif) BTW, I talked to TruDesign - I am on the lookout for some junk, cheap-ass 15" Fuchs - any size width - for centers. They will cut them out and make the wheels up to my sizes and backspacing no problem if I send them some wheels with good centers (good = straight, I don't care about paint).... so anyone, especially local so I don't ahve a ton of shipping costs, have some junk 15x6s nobody wants ???? |
