Default Forgeline WC3R wheels
I purchased a set of Forgeline WC3R and will be replacing the outers with 4" lip. The rear wheels are 11" with 2.5" lip. Forgeline will provide the parts to their distributors or you can send them the wheels and they will install new parts.

I was pleased to learn that I dont have to run spacers to fill my flares. I will end up with 9 fronts and 12.5 rears.

Forgeline's are top notch wheels! The guys there are also top notch. Met all of them and have known them for years. Wheels look great by the way!

I wish Michigan were a bit closer so I could hold one of those beauties up to my beater 993. They really look great.

Very Fikse FM-10 with a touch more sparkle.

12.5" rears!

my Fikse rears are 12 and I thought that was wide

What size tires are you going with? Make?
I am running Falken rt615s and like them a lot.

Those will look awesome, nice choice!

I ordered some wheel halves for my Kinesis wheels on the race car. The Forgeline guys were great to work with and saved me a bunch of headaches since Kinesis was bought out by some dub company.
