Gee I'd be interested, if only I knew whether they suited a Harrison with R32 Skyline IRS. Anyone?

YOU WILL NEED TO MEASURE YOUR BACKSPACING, BUT SAYING THAT, IF UR RUNNING R32 STUD PATTERN(FORD), THESE WONT WORK AS THEY ARE JAG(GM ) STUD PATTERN.

The R32 rear needs around 125mm of frontspace on the Harrison which makes around 129mm (approx 5") of backspace. Sounds (to me anyway) like the 3.5" is well beyond limits.

Guys, I have actually tried to fit an exact set of these onto my car Harrison with skyline brake etc and they WILL NOT clear the calipers. Rears aren't too bad with spacers but front are woeful!

They are quite a nice wheel but having seen them I personally beleive the DRAGWAY Hali is better!

Now that's what you call deep dish wheels, those backspace measurements are tiny.

Are they definitely reverse mounted wheel version as per your photo e.g. what is called soft lip?

Or are they traditional rim design, front mounted. e.g. what is called stepped lip?

They would fit my GT40 if we could graft an extra:

Rears: 2.5" into the rear backspace, so I end up 18 x 12.5" & 6" backspace.

Fronts: 1.5" into the rear backspace, so I end up with 18 x 9.5" & 6" backspace.

Well why not, that's how they make a lot of the wider than 10" hoops, they just cut and shut two hoops together.

Got to make a decision about my GT40 wheels soon. I really want to run 18 x 10 & 18 x 13", so that makes things a little difficult. I've also got to clear some rather large front brake calipers, so that makes things extremely difficult, as Spookypt has found out. High caliper clearance Billet wheels look to be the best option.

Cool Bigger wheels

Weld racing wheels is really the company that makes these wheels they are in town here alot of ther selection was bought by american racing they are a very fine wheel i actually know one of the pollishers and he is going to get me % off the price, weld is one of our top racing wheel companies here we would actually like to see a 12" made, Greg Weld who runs the biz used to go to church with us if thers any intrest in a wider wheel i could shure use some feed back from everyone and maybe we can get it done..Have a great one..WildBill3
