  • Flipping 3pc Meisters

    Seen these for sale:


    I've PM's the seller regarding barrel specs but want to flip them, maybe get a bigger inside lip to run as the front face with the current face on the inside.

    Just wondering if anyone's flipped Meisters before on here? Anything to look out for/issues?

    I shouldn't have any issues fitting them on my S13, going 17/18 stagger would probably help a lot with getting the rear to tuck more as it looks silly currently (currently 17x9-19 front and 17x9-35ish rear)



    Front is like:


    Thanks

    Depends on the current offset of the wheels now.
    Also, some Work Wheels are welded on the barrel, so finding out what year they were made may be beneficial.
    Because the disk size of the wheel, and the fact that you're changing the positioning of the face, it'd be extremely difficult to guesstimate offset without having the wheel. If would think the offsets (unless they're extremely low now, which they don't look like they are) will be crazy low. Lower than -35 I would imagine. The more information you have on lip size, barrel size, disk size, current offset, the better estimate you can make.

        Yeah man, total guess work until the guy gets back to me. Mine are all one piece so I know how much of a pain it can be to sort stuff out, as there's some huge dents in my rears :/
