Fuchs 16's into 17's
Who does this besides (bigger diameter and wider) Lindsey's and Jeff Alton? I'm looking to save some $ and supply my own wheels and do the finish myself if cheaper. So far, Lindsey has the best price @ 5 bills ea. I was hoping for about half that. Also Lindsey's advertises 17x8,9,10,11... does anyone know if they do a 17x7 or 7.5?
Thanks

If you're looking for economy 17" wheels in the Fuch design, why not go for the Rotas? That's closer to the price point you're looking for.

I went with TruDesign....I am doing a wide body conversion....I had them made with a custom back spacing that wont need any adaptors...and the price is very reasonable. Hope to have them back late this week.

TruDesign won't do 7.5 fronts. 7's or 8's. They will do 9.5 rears however. That is what these are. And btw... they are for sale

If you have the 6x16's cores and want to assemble them yourself. Contact Rebel Racing or ERP and have them cut and drill the centers for BBS wheel halves (20 bolts). Bob Woodman Tires carries both new and used BBS halves. The used selection varies. Look on their site for prices. They also sell all the parts needed to assemble the wheels. Bob Woodman Tires - Rims
