260DET Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 What you get done when you can't buy a lightweight. Made on Volk centers, the original 6.5" weighed just 4.9kg. All thats needed now are some 225 R tyres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

260DET Posted September 25, 2004 Author Share Posted September 25, 2004 Yeh, the el cheapo brake cooling duct. But it works As you all probably have worked out, the donor 6.5" Volk's were three piece with a suitable backspace. The wheels were disassembled, the flange for the outer part of the rim was then cut off and welded onto a sectioned piece of replacement wider rim. Not easy and not cheap but that sort of negative offset lightweight 8" wheel is virtually impossible to get in Oz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
