    Rim reversal?

    I already have a set of disco rims which have been reversed down in Melbourne somewhere.
    I reckon they have about 50 -60 mm offset and look the bis.
    I want some more for my stage 1....
    Is there a mob around Brissy/gold coast which will do the mod?
    I know you can buy cheap modular rims but they just don't look as good as deep dish steel disco's (+ disco centres are about 6mm thick!!)
    Any contacts will be much appreciated!

    Race Engineering do it - but make sure you are sitting down when they give you the price.

    There was a set for sale on the Gold Coast, not sure if they're still available.

    Try Belleau Engennering at Labrador, don't know the number though (they're off the GC Hwy heading towards harbour town). I had a set done by them about 5 years ago for around $60 a rim plus GST. Might have gone up but still not bad.

    As Ben said, race engeneering are not cheap, $100 plus IICR

    Google them for their details.
    $88 per wheel to whatever offset you want, they prefer bare rims, so you have to get your tyres removed/refitted.
    So I'm going to wait till I need new tyres then do it then.
    $440 for 5 is not cheap , you can buy modulars for about the same but the disco ones are way tougher, and look better
    Thanks to all
