guys forgot 6 inch lip

6" lip is like 26x12...now that's deep dish. Any issues with wheels sticking out like ghetto lowrider style?

No that why we milled down back side they were 10mm stock we removed 25mm to make them 35 mm offset they sit flush w the fenders in the front we will start on the other 2 in about 2 hours then i will get kumho 305-30-26 tires mount on them later today.

Can't wait to see the finished pics. Did the techs lowering your car ever say if you'll ever encounter rubbing / bottomming out problems with the 26's and dropped?

Your 07 is beautiful. Congratulations and I hope you enjoy it. Best looking 07 I have seen. Definitly post some more pictures when you get a chance because one is blurry and the other one is only with the chrome rims. I look forward to more pictures.

Thanks.

pics milling the backs down to 35 offset is the way to go they are flush with the fenders and then u can rotate them or wait 4 months until the rims companys start coming out with rims that fit the new 07's

Is that safe to be taking off that much of the wheel?

tid9 · #45 (**permalink**) 03-25-06, 07:39 PM

Spittin Game,

Machining wheels is quite normal. Most wheel companies order blank wheels (no bolt drlled and negative offset) to have on hand when 1) wheels are ordered for uncommon fitments and 2) inventory runs low on a particular bolt pattern of that wheel.

As long as a reputable machine shop does the work, it is safe and very common.

Truck looks good man...can't wait to sell some of these wheels to other members!!!
