SKkeeterZ Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Bought these today, 25 dollars they are a little rough but very easily cleaned up, What I want to know is the offset on these http://i.imgur.com/EuKT0.jpg http://i.imgur.com/IpYwL.jpg Tell me what you think Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 $25 for 4? Good price. I bought mine 5 for $50. I do not know the offset. I just know they're awesome! And heavy. Quote Link to comment

For some reason these aren't that heavy but I have been searching for the 6 lug ones for like 4 months now Quote Link to comment

Xander_42 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 That's a gorgeous truck. I will definitely have to keep an eye out for a set of these when I finally get a 620. If you want to get a rough (but reasonably close) gauge of offset. The brown is a bit of flat wood (or whatever) of consistent thickness that is at least as long as the diameter of the wheels. Lay it across as shown and measure down to the mounting face including the wood (this is a little easier than trying to see where your tape crosses the bottom edge). Now subtract the thickness of the wood, and you have the backspacing. Now measure the total width of the wheel (should be wider than the nominal width) and divide that by two. If the backspacing is bigger than half the width, the offset is positive and it's the difference. If the backspacing is smaller than half the width, the offset is the difference and negative. ^This should be pretty obvious, but if done carefully should get you withing 1.5mm of the actual offset.

Siqx20 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 That's a gorgeous truck. used to look better. The owner spray painted over perfect oe blue paint. It was new quality. Then hacked up the rear end "trying" to modify a rx7 shocks in there. Its half assed and hacked up. Poor little truck. Quote Link to comment

I guess what I meant was that those wheels look great on a 521, and it's not too low, and I'm just a sucker for a straight (ish) 521. What was he doing with RX7 shocks on a 510? Quote Link to comment
