sure. 198 faces are similar diameter as compared to 212 faces. Just need to get your hands on the wheel halves...
Edit. Was supposed to say 211.Last edited by 1badg35; 12-26-2012, 05:33 PM.sigpic

I think you have chosen your words incrorrectly. The 198 and 212 are different, both are 17x8,5 but the 198 uses double stepped lips to get from the small center faces to 17's.Originally posted by 1badg35 View Postsure. 198 faces are similar diameter as compared to 212 faces.
