Dang Broski, these are going to like perfection. you should paint the centers white/bronze or full polish

A half real update?!

Picked up some AC Schnitzer Type 1s for quite cheap. Plans remain the same regarding sizes but need to see how the sandwich faces affect the offsets. Fitted them for fun today and to play with new 24-105L lens. Typically it started to rain as I shot it, also I think one of the bolts must be too long as something is catching on the headshielding each side.

17x9 ET-1 (After 20mm I think, presuming this offset) - 235/45/17
17x10 ET-8 (After 28mm spacer) - 255/40/17

Meaty 4x4 status alert. Still waiting on the bags, end of the month fingers crossed! But pretty much, if I don't change these barrels and just add lip (~1 inch to each) these will sit similarly with 10/11, but leaves the option for 12 rear if cambered a little. I need to work out how much play these 'sport' arches have.

And why they were cheap, thank god I have spare lips! Whoever owned these before obviously didn't care.

Looks really nice and so mint looking cant wait to see it all done....

[Jorge]

this is a beautiful car . . wow! . . just not a fan of those 32's . . they look way to modern on there . . IMHO! . . a nice set of retro split 16's or 17's would make this car close to perfect!

So which of your collection are you sending me....?!


I'm looking out for some AC Schnitzer / Hartge faces I can swap between the OZ Mitos when I get the lips built..

They are all ready to come. A friend of a friend is bringing a container over with a mass of tyres and trackers and something like a 62 Corvette. The boxes are just popped in it. The crate is loaded, just waiting for it to reach a boat. Then get over the Atlantic, from the port to my friend the other side of the country then from him to me. It will be worth it saving a huge amount on shipping and taxes though!

I kinda want that something nice myself....

Ohhhhhh okay makes a lot of sense man! Good move!! I thought BagRiders still had it haha.

I know that you are starting to get ideas toooooo haha <3

[cruzd2]

Love this stance too... however you're gonna manage to get it there?!?!?!
