Not Ranked
I ordered the Wheels before Christmas so I guess it was a 4 month wait. He's not the speediest wheel builder but the finished product is very nice. Tom's been having a few health problems and that's slowed him down a bit. I think he's getting back on track now.
Working out the offsets... I got some offsets from Classic Revival for 17x8" and 17x9.5" rims initially but I wasn't 100% confident in the dimensions and how they would go on my car. Leeroy had a set of Toms wheels made up in these offsets and he let me borrow them. I checked the clearance on them whilst fitted to my car and tweeked the offset figures so I could fit 11" and 8" rims under the car with the pin drive adaptors. Measure, measure and measure again (It was a nervous 4 months wait).
Cheers
