I'm taking a wild guess and saying Rotiform told him the specs of the wheels they built for him.

With a ruler and some quick math.
I had these custom built for me from Rotiform, in these specs.
Front lip is 1.25"
Front barrel is 7.5"
Front backspace is 6.5"
Rear lip is 2.5"
Rear barrel is 8"
Rear backspace is 7"

Can you post a couple of pictures of a ruler laid across the wheel lips (width-wise) for a front and rear wheel?

If you want me to show you on my own personal wheels, I'll be more than happy to.

Yes, I know how to do it. I wanted to make sure you were not including the flange in the wheel widths since the sizes were somewhat non-standard.

Hi BHC, do you have any pictures of these E26 on a narrow body? Would like to know how these offsets look like installed. Thanks!
