‘New’ 17 inch 328/308 reproduction wheels.

Almost a year old reply, but who did the 17" wheels on the red 308 in post #24?

Mike_E Any further details on these - width, offset, cost?
Also mentioned are 18 inchers?

Thx!

 

Here’s my 17’s i don’t think they look too big at all

I had to check my notes. The 17s were 8 and 9 with 13 and 16mm offset. They were custom so offset adjustments are easy as long as it still fits on the available forging.

I did 18x8 and 18x10 on my car with 13 and 32mm offset to keep them inside the stock fender....which required moving the lower shock mounts in a little. I think there is also a 9" forging avaliable but I'd need to draw the wheel.

It's been a few years so I'd need to contact the vendor and get current pricing but my guess is $500/600 each.

Mike's wheels are pieces of art. I've seen them at shows and they are incredible.

 

Thanks Kent! I wish they made more of these for the 3x8 as many 3x8 owner’s wants them.

 

Ha! Mike's 308 is a piece of art!!

I had a customer ask me to fit 360 wheels to a 308 without narrowing the rear rims. I did and it was easier than I thought. Not my favourite look on a 308 but he likes them and thats all that matters.

 

They are 10s aren't they? I ended up moving the lower shock mount to get 10's with 285s under my fenrders....do you recall the tire size you used?

 

The rims had stock tires on them, came off a 360 and went on his car. I put QA1's on the car as well at the time. Had to put the spacers on the front and the rear I made upper shock relocation brackets to tip the rears in at the top and I widened the fiberglass inners.

Ahh, you moved the top mount. For whatever reason I moved the bottom which was probably more work but on the fiberglass 1 side was fine the other I used a zip-tie to pull it in just a little.

 

hello mk e I was interested in these wheels. Wondering if you might message me directly. Thank you.

 

How about a nice set of 14" Pirelli Cinturato CN36

https://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/205-70wr14-pirelli-cinturato-cn36.html

more than enough grip for any road car, and much nicer ride. (and they look cool)

 

Looks fantastic! Perfect proportions.

Is suspension ride height stock or lowered?

 

Thank you Rodney! It is Lowered with the adjustable VariShock coil over both front and rear

 

Wondering if anyone knows how to get a hold of mk e? Or might have any information on the wheels that he has had made? Post 24 of this thread. Thanks very much.

 

Did you try shooting him a PM?

I did. For some reason, the system does not allow for direct messaging mk e. any help getting a hold of him greatly appreciated. Thanks again

 

I see that now, apologies.

Does the @mk e syntax work on this forum to give him an indication that he is being discussed?

 

Thanks bitsobrits. I have no idea. I don’t even know how to use the @ syntax. lol.
