So the wheels are forged 3 piece Work Rezax II. They're project wheels that a lot of time is going to go into since I want them to be one of a kind.
Size now is 18x8.5 +38 and 18x9.5 +28 with 2.5" and 3.5" lips. WEAK!
Currently they're black painted faces with gloss black lame DDC lips. The plan is to relip them with reverse 1.5" wider, this also lowers the offset 18mm on each wheel. The lips will be polished.
Here comes the fun part. The finish I want for the faces (chrome purple) is impossible to do with paint or powder. So the faces will need to be fully polished first, and then anodized purple.
Final sizing will be 18x10 +20 and 18x11 +10 with a 4" and 5" lip!

although I am still contemplating adding 2 more inches of lip to the front making them 18x10.5 +14. But I think only having .5" difference in the stagger might be weird.

Let me know what you all think!

you probably shouldn't stretch dry rotting tires haha. But yeah I think I'm gonna run those sizes also.

Question for munchy... u think you could have put a little bigger tire on the back if you had stayed with a 25 offset?. I ask because i ordered a set ( yes... im a copycat) and i can use all the rubber i can get. Have some power going to them rear wheels...

Yeah most likely. Just don't go as low.

I haven't done much research on fitting a big tire back there cause I've always been about getting lower, but I know tiltmode has put a 265 or 275 on an 11.

tilt did use a bigger tire on his varrstoens but he had a lot of issues with it because he was so low.

No I haven't raised it up. We ordered a fender roller, I need a roll in the rear for sure or I will destroy the new tires.
