Ceika, the 20" vossen cv3 inner barrel measures 17.6" in diameter at it's lowest point ( in the middle of the rim barrel)
We're about to remove the studs, slide wheel OVER top the caliper then bring the bottom of the wheel down, hold it, there, and put studs through from the back. We hope this works.

Wow i see. Good luck and finger crossed! I'd wrap the caliper and rotors with the foam sheet not to scratch anything during the process.

Just get rid of the spare tyre, save 15kg and get a flat tyre spray can. Many cars come with those from the factory and don't have spare tyres anymore.

 

right now drive with anxiety since i dont have a spare
however considering this:

i like this wheel but it probably wont fit in the trunk of a isx50, but i could be wrong

 

Finally joining the club sneak peak for now. Still need Rotora decal.



PS: my rotors may be backwards, says a friend. Don't worry, I'm looking into tomorrow haha.

 

Looks good Adam. That was quick with the powerdercoat

 

Haha thanks. One of the brake line bolt holes on the caliper was stripped out so we had to drill out the hole and rethread it and custom make a brake line bolt tho. Went from simple install to "wtf do we do now..."

 

May I suggest NOT putting on the rotora name?
Then again my car is emblemless and so I'm biased. Disregard me.

 

welcome to the bbk club. lookin good!!

 

Sick. The white was a great choice. What color do you plan to get the decals?

 

Welcome to the BBK club. I wonder how long they'll stay white.

 

You may. And i may take that route

Thanks guys. White seemed like the only option to make them stand out and not completely be random/clash with my car (Bronze wouldnt pop as much, and i may not have my wheels much longer). Thinking of black Rotora decal, but I do like how they look as is too

My mechanic/friend who installed them was giving me hell about keeping them clean, I hope they last a while white, otherwise it's back to the drawing board and a color change.

 

White looks LEGIT!

 

Dat tucked rear rim doe...
Yea, you're doing it right.

 

White actually isnt that bad to take care of... Yes.. they get more visibly dirtier, but if you baby your ride and wash her every week or 2.. its pretty easy to keep them looking fresh.

Me on the other hand.. my white Brembo's are no longer white... i havent washed my car in months... LOL.

 

Got my rears. Waiting for the fronts.... now
