    I have a set of cherished Speedline Mistrals which i would never part with!
    But i am wondering if anyone out there would be wanting to increase the size of theirs, as i am looking to decrease!
    My wheels are 18"x9" wide (front) and 18"x11 wide (rear)
    They where originally off a TR and now on my Mondial 3.2
    I really only want to swap the inner part of the rims so that the width is reduced but would consider any suggestions!
    I do know image can turn them up for me but at a price!
    Anyone!!!!!!

    Speedline, or probably Compomotive in your area, should be able to provide inner rim halves to fit. Easy replacement of those halves, for damage repair or offset sizing, is the whole reason for 3-piece wheels (one-piece is actually lighter for a number of reasons). Check with them, they are set-up to do exactly this, pretty easily, by design. Be sure they replace the inner seals while they've got them split.

    Tell him Auraraptor recommended you contact him.

    He will be customizing a pair of F512m wheels for my late hub 328GTS.

    Hey Auraraptor your right! He is the man.
    Ive exchanged 4-5 emails with him already.
    Hes giving me a quote for supplying the inners, and also doing the complete job.
    Should know tomorrow.
    I will let you know how i get on.

    Getting ready to go out in my Mondial, I'm taking her round The North West 200 road (motorbike) racing circuit.
    Its next weekend so the track is 90% ready.
    My caravan is in the middle of it.
