samregjones Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 I've been on here a while now. I've asked the odd question and made the odd comment but the time has finally come to get my wagon on here. So, here it is...and a pic of one of the wheels to go on...They need a clean and a bit of a referb but thought i'd share the start of my build.Once the wheels are cleaned up and ready to go on it's getting lowered, smoked headlamps, debaged grill, i want a bonnet bra but have heard they don't do your paint any favours so i'm going to matt black vinyl the bonnet to protect it and i have some patches of laquer peal which will get hidden under the wrap too - two birds one stone!That'll be about it i think...for now anyway!

samregjones Posted March 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 thanks for the comments.Question for you all, is 7j 7inch on alloys?Measured the ones I've got and they're 8inch wide... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koop Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 (edited) Correct.AFAIK the J measurement is from the inside of the lip though. Edited March 9, 2012 by Koop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadmetal Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Wheel width is messaured from the inside of the lips. 7j wheels could very easily be 8inches wide.Do the have anything stamped on the back? Most wheels have width and offset stamped on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samregjones Posted March 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 i know the PCD & offset ET45, need adapters at 20mm - makes ET25?the only thing on the inside of the wheel is "made in italy"...i did measure inside lips, thats 7" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
