Wastehog Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Damn.. Those will look sick. Beg borrow or steal a thin walled socket and let's see these bitches. I love the idea of the insert..

thehoe92 Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 295 and 305 is the width of the tire not the sidewall or thickness from rim to top of tire. That's the second number. 305 mm Is like 9.5" iirc. wrong.. trust me I thought the same way and wrong on the second part too a 305/35/24 has a bigger sidewall than a 295/35/24 because the second number is a percentage of the first so it would be 35% of 295 or 305 and 305mm has nothing to do with the width of the rim my rims are 10" wide and I have a 295 tire on them Wouldnt be thehoe92 without teh purple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the idea of the insert.. How are they held in? supposedly sears has one and I have three of them I can hit up on the way home. the inserts are held in by allen head bolts. I'll take pics to show you but the center by the end cap has them from the back side of the cap and then the side closest to the lip has them on the outside. So you secure them to the center cap and then to the wheel. its alot easier to see and put in perspective.

n8ball2013 Posted June 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 the issue is not the lugs its the lug well off the wheels. Its so narrow I can't get any socket inside the well. Ive got these on the way should be here tomorrow.

cracker Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 hmmm ill try it but i dont think its going to make a difference never know til you try. ha yeah just thought id bring it up. i know i checked a pile of sockets at work trying to find one that worked. almost ordered a set of them thin walled but had this idea last sec and worked lol. depending on the brand the 3/8s should have a thinner wall than the 1/2 drive. i used a craftsman metric 21mm 3/8 drive iirc March 2010 SOTM winner my old buildhttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/50219-dank-aka-crackers-bonne-new-v2-build-in-the-works-hahahaaaaaa/page__hl__crackers my youtube page - http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=jackiedan04#g/u my feedback - http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/56540-official-cracker-feedback/ i need tacos and bass to live!!!!! and will NEVER change hahaaaa TEAM NOIZE VIOLATION Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
