homemade DIY split-rims

[Sergey]

The wheels was checked out and they are almost absolute round 0,09, 0,16, 0,25 ja 0,32mm maximun difrence.
SUNNY 195/45/16 tires from http://www.camskill.co.uk

now they are benchmarked, so today i know that they will fit perfectly on GOLF mk3 but hey, my golf is running up north and there's soon snowseason so they are now where they belong... MB W123

What i know for sure, is that the rear wheels will fit perfectly front and i need to put the front wheels again to pieces and take off the 1" lip and buy two 3 or 4 inch lips and then put them rear. SO they won't fit perfectly on a merc in current setup. it helps that i have spacers, rear 25mm/1" and front 15mm/0,6".

It's a good start.

Shopped! I see it from the pixels. I know because I've seen a few in my day...

but seriously. the wheels are only standing on the side. Lowering is shopped. I bought this car last saturday and now i'm waiting for 4x100 to 5x112 spacers and coilovers... The car is 1997 1.9TDI 110hp (fixing it to 140hp with evry-mod)

My life situation changed a bit so i laid up the old gas mercs for saving money. I need to drive alot next 10 months so diesel is the shit.

At which point did I say he said he was?

I'm saying that saying things that were said is just like saying what sayers say on saturday.

OP -- Show me the machinery you're working on? I need to get a lathe with a large throw so I can do this.
