Thanks Guys,
Sounds like 20mm not flipped is the way to go. Will this have any effect on the strengh? I spoke to one place (so far the only place.. the others are all away on holidays..) who said they would only flip them, not just move the offset because of the lip.. and doing it around the lip would weaken them. Is this right or is there a way around it?

they are awesome looking rims and also a VERY awesome looking rig:eek:Quote:

CHIEF I bought these from a bloke in Brissy with tyres a couple of years ago. Have repainted them since. But I had the centres offset in a set of Disco rims about 6 years ago and they cost about $80 each to do. Would imagine it would be more now though.
c.h.i.e.f it would help if you put your state in your profile so that people could have a stab at answering your questions regarding legality.
The safe (and probable) answer is... doubtful.
oh ok well they look really good:D and thanks i have been meaning to put my loction for ages now ;)
Why wouldn't it be legal? Is there anyone that knows for sure? (NSW) also - if it is legal in one state, and ilegal in another, does that mean that you can't drive it in the state that it is ilegal (or is it only that you can't register it there?)Quote:

flagg I don;t know it's a minefield. Some things like spotties on roof are legal in some states and not legal in other states and they can book you irrespective of what state the vehicle is registered in.
and yet you still haven't ! :pQuote:

Thanks mate. I'm a bit worried she'll still prefer the white ones.
Come to think of it there was a problem with the white ones paint flak'ng wasn't there ? Didn't show up on the black ones !? :lol:
Well - That's the story we'll go with if asked, Ok everyone ?!
I don;t suppose anyone has a really DODGY pic of white dynamic/kings rims on a Defender ?
white spoked wheels look poxy, only LR factory rims go well in white :D Mud, brake dust, road grime and oil leaks blend into the dark rims nicely too
