Bit of bling

We likes banded steelies

Shame they looked nice...very hard to find alloys to fit a Commer!

Will sell them on. They would probably fit the standard commer back end

[PaulJL]

Well I sold the alloys. Not going to lie, I'm gutted they wouldn't fit. Did get 3x what I paid for them though!
The plan is to have some 15" steelies banded as wide as I can get in

 

[Panky]

Banded steelies all the way

Banded steelies are currently off the table... I have a cunning plan....

 

[Panky]

OOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[PaulJL]

To band a set I would need to have each wheel done with an inner and outer band. That's £110 per rim. Plus buying the rims. Then I would need to blast and paint them.
I've found something off the shelf that will do the job for very similar money and is brand new..

Don’t keep us in suspense!

Patience....

Wellers by any chance

Nope although I did look into them. You're not far off though

 

[PaulJL]

Tadaa.
16x8" steelies for a Jeep.
6" backspace for the rears and 4.5 for the fronts

 

[Panky]

Very nice, too cool for school

 

[PaulJL]

After a trim of the centre holes on Tim's new lathe... They fit.. Only just though. There is definitely going to be issues with the fronts but will soon see.

 

[commeracer]

They fit fine, just need to leave the tyres off.....

I'm sure the marshals at the Pod would love that...

Need a rubber band
