Mando, the wheels are the 3 piece ozwheel ones.
I changed the outer rim for an extra inch of dish and then machined the inner face (12mm) to bring the wheel in a bit but maintain clearance. In general I wanted to change the busy look of the wheel. I have had the centres powder coated in a satin gunmetal grey, the satin finish is to minimise the shine or reflective surfaces on the centre.
The other thing that I did was replace the mounting bolts. These are now a low head high tensile which sit flush with the centre for a smoother look. The bolts have all been treated as a HOT black oxide (not normal black oxide). When I rebuild the wheels I was happy with the end result.
The rears were rebuilt and machined so I could get maximum dish but still have clearance.... its tight but it works. Rear tyres are 285 40.
However I do agree that the 18s and the rim profile look good.
