My WT46 and WT56 were both one piece and the insert for the WT56 was gold not silver like in their picture.

Nox, I think those are 2 piece, you're showing a separate basket (gold).

When I say 1 piece, I mean 1 solid piece...


These are going to be tricky cause I gotta drill 'em, not like doing the plastic bit wheels, I do those by hand and it's easier to center. As you can see, the WM01 has no hole while the others do!!

well you do have a couple of sets, you could do it both ways if you'd like i suppose...

I dont have a couple of sets of the same style. only one.

yea..mine are two, separate basket.

none of my sets are just one piece then.
and any all have predrilled holes.

Be stright DT, we don't want your rides being warped.

Oh, by the way. those last two rims are ugly. Sorry.
I do hope you can do something special with them...
Are they the new ones you got from EZ?

I like the first set.

Breaking ALL the rules...

Oh I agree, they are. I only got the first set, They are real nice, not polished though! They are close to AMG wheels.. The second ones look like the ones that came on the 1970-73 BMW 3.0CS, they were so cool back then but now........Nah!

Heh? Heh?........Whatcha say Sonny?????

aight, so after further inspection - I noticed all my tires were different (in between sets), that's cool! some are super slick with a harder compound rubber - and treads! others are super puffy and grippy, etc.

so I ran in to a brick wall when I had my 10 mm alloys mounted up front, with some super puff/grip tires. I ponder and finally gave in to the idea of taking some rubber off the tire...
it worked!

so now my front's turn fine, no rubbing etc. no cutting on the chassis, etc.
some bodies will have to have the fenders shaved a touch though.

here's what I did.
I put the tires I wanted to trim down on my rear axle alloys.
I put that up on the head of the dremel, and with the dremel on the lowest speed - I just kept lightly touching the tires on to the gripped head of the dremel.
I wore the tires down naturally as if it were driving on a roughed up surface until they were the lower profile size I needed.

be careful if you try it, cuz it's easy to ruin a tire, create a wabble, etc.

I have 3 size barrel drums (1 standard, 2 smaller one's that came with the cordless Dremel I got from MicroMark) I'll mount to drum and use sandpaper to cut down the tires. Putting twoon a drum at the same time will get totally even results. I'm getting some 10's on the next order so if/when I run into this problem, I'll document, w/pics and do a tuit,

my 11.5 mm's came 1 peice.....

I gotta wait till monday or god forbid TUESDAY
