Just got my RH 3.6 Turbo Wheels Rebuilt and Refinished....

I will be putting on a widebody kit that has 11" flares up front and 13" rear flares so I needed to have my RH 3.6 Turbo wheels widened to accommodate the kit. For the rear I purchased the widest outer lips that I could find for these wheels, which is just shy of 6". I used the outer lips from the rear wheels (that are being replaced with the 6" lips) to replace the outer lips on the front wheels. I was worried that the front wheels wouldnt look right after being rebuilit since the rear wheels lips were brand new with a mirror like finish. But the clear coat was worn through in places and chipping so they polished them down to raw aluminum and ended up matching the rears perfect.

Wheels before being refinished and rebuilt:


These are 275/35/18 rears and 225/40/18 fronts with no spacers.




After being widened the new tire are 295/30/18 and 245/35/18










Shown with 2" spacers in the rear and .75" spacers up front.
