was it smaller or bigger?

turbo2nr · 03-07-2012, 09:14 AM

it was slightly to small it wouldnt fit around the nut head, but 9mm is way to big so idk..

'97 S14 SE Turbo · 03-07-2012, 11:43 PM

Try std 5/16" 12 point socket.

turbo2nr · 03-08-2012, 06:57 AM

i tried 11/32 12 point, it fits but if i try to apply pressure it slips. i know im suppose to loosen from the back nut and just hold with the bolt head. think that would be enough to hold it?? i dont want to damage the bolt head..

essforteen · 03-08-2012, 11:03 AM

Use a small impact drill and loosen it from the back.
Thats what my brother and I did. It worked fine with nothing holding the other end.

A little preview, still need to clean up barrels and polish faces and clean bolts.. but you get the basic idea..

g_mac530 · 03-11-2012, 06:03 PM

^ lookin good!

jdizzy204 · 03-11-2012, 08:23 PM

Quick question, I am considering relipping my 17" panasports and they are 35 hole lips/barrels.

I noticed that OZ sells 17" step lips in 35 hole. Will they fit or are my wheel lips a different pitch?

Mister.E · 03-11-2012, 08:28 PM

these were both 18x8.5's that were re-lipped

fronts are now 18x10 +-0 and rears are 18x12 -7

GL Chrillz · 03-15-2012, 03:06 PM

I'm going to assume the answer is yes, but can you widen super advan sa3r? looking into buying some this summer and i never see any 4 lug ones in good width

BOROSUN · 03-15-2012, 03:20 PM

I'm in the same boat. Looking for a 5 lug 18" sa3a to widen.
I heart 3 spoke.

GL Chrillz · 03-15-2012, 03:22 PM

I'm pretty sure they're 3-piece. I know for a fact you can re-lip them.

Waiting for my wheels to be done... It's killing me...

ruthlessef-9 · 04-03-2012, 08:46 AM

I seen the replacement vsxx lips in be wheels.. What if I want to keep my same specs and get new lips. Do i just order the same size lip I have now? I know it sounds simple just wondering if disc type and offset matter

Yup just order the same size lips you have already, but why are you doing this? It will be cheaper to repair a lip or refurbish it most of the time then to just buy new lips.

ruthlessef-9 · 04-03-2012, 09:05 AM

Because we don't have those kind of shops around hawaii.. Well good ones that is

Clearalbino · 04-09-2012, 11:05 PM

Does anyone know of a place to get replacement/larger lips for work equips (32 bolt)?
I've seen VR sells replacement lips but only for the 36 bolt style.

kalypso123 · 04-09-2012, 11:13 PM

this thread is simply awesome.

jdizzy204 · 04-10-2012, 01:22 AM
