How hard are 13 inch meshies to find?

Where can I get some wheel bands, halves(what do you call them)?

When you flip or reverse the centre to generate more negative offset and dish are there any risks involved with structural integrity etc?

When you flip or reverse the centres is there any big issue with having the valve on the inside, apart from inconvenience of access?

Thanks in advance.

Huge neg offsets put strain on wheel studs and also lower ball joints/ wheel bearings etc.

Yep okay, understood. How huge is huge? Try and answer that without relating to your peepee

I haven't any offset figures but how about around 3-4" dish? I need some halves to make a wider wheel. The rims I have are welded. So offset is high negative.

Where do people get their wheel halves? Japan I suppose?

How often you going to drive it? About as PDT e'er n as my pee pee, so not often

depends how wide and what offset, damage is probs just earlier than normal like wheel bearings may need replacing at 20k instead 25k etc etc.
dont know where you get halves from, factory maybe. but i wouldnt cut and widen the original ssr

Alright, I'll get some measurements. Not a frequent driver, once or twice a week (there and back).

Won't hurt a 1200 which has relatively HUGE wheel bearings, lug studs and balljoints, for the weight of the car.

Are they genuine SSR Mesh or something else like Formula Mesh or Southern Ways Mesh?

13s are hard to find here, as people want 14s or 15s.

But they did make them, they even made 10" diameter versions.

Here are 6x13 +25, but they are SSR Formula Mesh (2-piece)
