14x7 steelies... the guy only made one set, I havent seen any others.... yet.... :P Corrado centercaps. Used to have 15mm spacers out in the back... but I decided rubbing sucked. The car is much too fast to have to pussy foot it due to rubbing ;)

here was the original plan... couldnt figure out how to mount the caps though...they are still in primer here...

nice to see these done right..
i presume there were 8 wheels used here? to make 4
i think its the only way i would do it well.. as you only end up with one weld.

not sure but i wouldnt be happy running them with a weld like that.
I would have refused them. Unlike the welds on the anded steels we do, been running a set for almost 3 years now and they still balance up true and had no probs
