WTB: High offset, 5 Lug, 3 Piece wheels

[shiftnslide]

hey,

i need four, high offset, preferably a staggered pair, of skinny wheels.

important:
need to be 5 lug
need to be 3 piece (can be disassembled completely)
need to clear z-brakes
need to be 17 or 18

i'd also like to spend less than $500 but for some work vienna kreis.. i'd make an exception.

if the world was perfect i'd be able to get a pair of 17's toward the top of this last and a pair of 18's toward the bottom:
7" +30
7.5" +25
7" +35
7.5"+30
8" +25
7" +38
7" +40
7.5" +35
8" +30
7.5" +38
7.5" +40
8" +35
7" +48
8" +38
8" +40

please post here or e-mail specs and pics to bDOTbarkovitzATgmailDOTcom

thanks.

are you remaking some super wide wheels or something?

yeah.. that's the plan.

If you decide you want to spend a bit more and want 18's, I have a set of 3 piece Veilside Andrew V wheels for sale. Specs are:
2 front wheels are 18 x 8, 4/5 lug, 114.3, +36 offset
2 rear wheels are 18 x 9, 4/5 lug, 114.3, + 36 offset

Excellent condition, and located in South Carolina

i'll give this a bump.. not much help so far.

i'd like some work equips.. the veilside wheels posted above.. work vs-xx.. some panasports.

let me know!

I have a brand new set of four Work Ewing rims with all center cap parts for $300 plus shipping, but not to your specs. [email protected]

They are 15" reverse lip, 5x112 and 2 pce. Can easily be converted to 17" or 18" because of the large center peice diameter. I have converted a set of smaller narrower diameter 2 pce rims to larger diameter wider 3 pce rims for my MA67 as you want too.

To convert you will need to unbolt and cut the hoops apart (they are welded together). Angle grinder and smooth hand, it's easy to do. Or lathe if you have access to one. Also the wheels need to be milled and inserts installed to convert to 5x114.3 at a wheel shop. Cost is usually around $25/wheel and a lot of places can do it.

Can't get cheaper than this?

thanks, i appreciate the offer but this would require 8 new barrels, both inner and outter for each wheel, which then makes this not as cheap of an option (barrels are $150-200 each). thanks anyways.

I have some hoops too in 17" and 18" ready for machining to fit any centers!

It will be hard to find four 3 pce wheels for $500 or less. I hope you find some.

do you have stepped lip hoops? how much for hoops too?

i didn't say i need less than $500, it'd just be nice. 17x7 +45 ain't worth much more than that anyways.. hahah.

Yes for the outside hoops, the pictured hoops are for the inside. What widths inner and outer are you looking for?

$75 plus shipping per hoop not polished.

hmm.. good info.. how much for polished? or how does one get them polished?

the only other place i found that sold them was kodiak racing and they do them for like $150 or so each.

the width of the hoop kinda depends on the face i get. i'd be building a 9" or 9.5" front wheel with a 10 or 10.5" rear wheel. ideally it'd also be 17" in front and 18" in rear. i'd need to know the distance from the mounting part of the face to the edge of the face where it bolts to determine offset.

Polishing is really easy. Just buy some aluminum polish from a hardware store and go to town. Buy something that comes in a tin container and has an applicator included. I did it on some wheels I built myself.

I'm limited to size though when it comes to widths I can sell you four inner hoops, two 18x7 and two 18x8 for $400 shipped ground. Backspacing will be around 5.5" to 6.0" and 6.5" to 7.0".

hmm..

i'd want roughly:
front: inner hoop = 6", outter = 3"
back: inner hoop = 6.5", outter = 3.5"

I edited my reply while you were replying to me because I forgot there were two different widths.

It all depends where you mount the hoop on the center and the center design itself. Outer hoop on the outside of the center and inner hoop on the inside of the center, both hoops on the outside of the center or both hoops on the inside of the center. Please see pics of the wheels above to get an idea what I mean.

oops double post.

right, i understand that.

what i want to know is what widths of hoops can you get? when you say a 7 and an 8, is that like a 5.5" inner hoop with 1.5" outter hoop for the 7, and like 6" inner hoop with 2" outter hoop for the 8". etc. etc.

i just wanna know the different size hoops you can get, inner flat lip, and outter stepped, and i'd run the math and figure out how i want to mix and match the hoops i have with the ones i want to get to put together a 9" and 10" wheel.

I'm limited on outer hoops unfortunately. The 7" and 8" measurements were the widths for the inner hoops only.

Remember a 10" wide rim is actually 10" from bead center to bead center. The wheel width itself is actually 11" from outside edge to outside edge.
