Lol glad you approve bae
Probe kids have been putting mustang bullitts (sp) on their cars for years. I've always thought it was cool cause it was sort of oem plus ish. One reason I went with cobra wheels forever ago. I think this is just a step up from that since they are in fact legit wheels and I can manage at least 3" lips and prlly closer to 4"sigpic

(the reason why I run 1" lips all around)
Oh....so I need .25" lips then!? Dang 😞sigpic

Just a probe
As of right now the plans are to have the wheels the dropped off at wheel flip and have them split. At that point I may have the faces polished. I will also be having them send me the parts I need to rebuild/relip them into my desired specs. I will be assembling the wheels myself. I never have assembled or even touched a three piece wheel so I look forward to this part. It will also save me some money as wheel flip won't be doing any labor to assemble them.
Also if anyone know how to calculate wheel offset from scratch and could help me out that would be awesome! Right now the wheels are 18x8/9 +33. I do not know lip or barrel sizes but, I believe the faces to be o disk, based off of the spec chart I found.sigpic

If you are just changing lips its relatively easy. For every 1" of width to the wheel you change the offset by 12.7MM. I can get you a link to an offset calculator for 3pc wheels. Hold up.
EDIT: There you go bud. http://stu.taylor-net.co.uk/tools/offset
Double edit: Split these yourself! It's easy man. Also why not tackle the polishing while you're at it!Last edited by mikey G; 02-05-2015, 10:35 PM.Instagram : @SHMVNY_GVNG

Why not split them yourself and save even more labor?-Christian.

don't want to split them myself because i don't have a lathe, the wheels are welded from factory. apparently work welds the barrels and lips together for extra strength since there are only 20 bolts.sigpic

Makes total sense! I wouldn't want to try splitting welded wheels either!-Christian.
