Changing rim offset

Post by 308LUX »

Came across a set of 15 / 10 sunrasia rims with 5" of backspacing...which makes the 37" x 14" x 15 iroks i run turning circle terrible on my hilux... the 5" is measured from the inside of the rim to the inside flanged face... so the wheel is too close to the springs... i want to bring the flanged face closer to the inside edge... so its closer to 2.5" or 3" moving the wheel outside the wheel arch more



Does anyone know of a place in vic that can change the rim offset ?

And what are the hilux guys rim offsets when on 37" x 14" x15

you can buy the rim without the centre and cut your old centre out and weld it on the other way. Called a flipped rim

Sunrasia style rim
