Took them back to wheel tech and they tried to put them on. Funnily enough they didn't fit which the guy was pretty surprised at.Anyways, we think it may be a completely different offset to what it had on it. So there are 2 more on their way down and the guy fron Rota has had the ones he's sending on a few XR6T's, F6's.Hopefully they'll be ready on friday and hopefully these ones fit .

Will be picking up the brembos with some in house pads on friday arvo and hopefully fitting them fri night if the wheels have arrived . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboRay Member 3 Member For: 12y 17d Posted 20/12/12 04:28 AM Share Posted 20/12/12 04:28 AM Hi I used to sell wheels and got out of it for a few years now. Recently I bought some Rotas (18x9.5 and 18x11)I had that problem on my mustang when I went with rotas as well. Rota Dealer in NZ explained his wheels come in different blocks off offsets and he can order them machined down to achieve a offset. So they take something that is a Zero offset and they shave the back off until they get to +25. As well u can get a wheel that's a +20 and they shave it down to get a +45. That reduces the amount of castings they produce. So you might have had a different block that was machined alot and then the centercap stick out (like in my mustang)When you look at thoes mass produced wheels they have a huge block of material where the face hits the wheel, they shave that down to get a specific offset.Was a pain in the ass because I had to grind down some of the axle hub on my mustang to get them to sit flush. There was no more material left over to machine.If I had the money I would have put CCW's or HRE's or Simmon's as they are made to order. As always you get what you pay for.

Yeh it seems there was definately something a bit different going on there.Either way, I wanted to go new ones which are now all ready to pick up and looking good. So looking forward to putting those on . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
