Thread: Offset rims

Cheers, Steve.

Steve - I got told by the place that did my rims that they would increase the offset by 15mm without reversing, and if reversed would have to be a minimum of +30mm offset. However another wheel place in brisbane who I shouldn't name increased the offset on a mates wheels by 30mm without reversing them - this meant that where the weld should go there was a gap between the rim and the centre which first needed to be filled with weld - not the safest way IMO...

Andre - nice rims and nice truck - wasn't the one I saw parked at Curtin uni was it?

In the UK this is not common - I still get emails about doing this from some pix on a UK site.
