haha, this is slick!

JStang · 06-05-2015, 12:45 PM

That's awesome. Shoot me a PM about who refinished your wheels.

JNoSol · 06-05-2015, 12:54 PM

You can sell these if you mass produce them.

so I took apart whole wheel again and and basically sandwiched the tire with the 2 lips, put seal in between the 2 lips (basically like sealing an oilpan) and mounted the face again

its on there now but have to wait to dry and get air in it

also wanted to add its much lighter then the steel spare, and since the LM is forged wheel, it should make it stronger as well

Taken straight out of beadlock wheels playbook

well done!!!!

Need. How easy is it to remove the center barrel and re-bolt these?

BananaCar · 06-05-2015, 02:20 PM

Awesome! Would this fit i3???

Savage_M3 · 06-05-2015, 02:27 PM

You need to start selling these!

It takes up so little space versus my current option of a full size wheel and tire. It's nice to have that option with my winter/summer setup's, but it takes up so much damn space!

nice.

twin fed · 06-05-2015, 02:37 PM

SICK JOB!!!

MRG Race Co · 06-05-2015, 02:49 PM

Awesome! This is great! I think I saw floss design did this same thing with an e88.

JLIxAPB · 06-05-2015, 03:05 PM

What is the storage compartment on the left? Mine doesn't have that.

A "hella flush" spare!
Nice work.

No, the i3 has a bolt circle of 112/5 instead of 120/5.

But it is a tempting idea, as pointed out to me by a friend who saw the thread...

Might be cheaper than custom rims as there isn't really any options out there now. Nothing for 20.
