I have brought a set of Work Meister 3pc S1's 18" fronts are 10j et -22 and rears are 13j et -35. I'm looking to put them on my new 2002 pearl white Silvia that I'm building and putting a wide arch kit on.
Just looking to find out how wide people have gone before, these stick out 70mm from stock on the front and 130mm on the rear each side.

Rear


Test fit to my old Silvia

They were polished veilside Andrews I think bud. I'm refurbing these as they're in a state so I'll put pictures up of how they all come out. These are only the second set of splits I've done myself so it's going to take a week I'd say to finish them.

Im in the middle of refurbishing my nismo rims at the minute although they are only 2 piece :) I heard fish tank sealer is the nuts for sealing 3 piece wheels

I've not split the barrels as there's not really any point, I just rebolted the centers in three places to keep them together without breaking the seal. Here's how the first barrel came out.

They came out really well considering the previous owner of the wheels had Laquered the lips over a pretty poor polish. It's pretty time consuming getting this finish haha

Wow, That front fitment scares me I have to admit :nod: I want some in a similar if not slightly weaker spec than your fronts for the rear of my 14a :eek:

Will do, I think I'll have all four barrels done by Monday so I'll post up they came out then. I should have the centers painted by Wednesday or Thursday so hopefully it'll only of taken a week.
