Sorry for the delay guys, working on it atm, but your comments are much appreciated!

OverD, when I did the twin s.s. trials I was still running my old Maximizers with the 3/4" offset. So that made the pull on the knuckles much harder on accel & braking. I researched tire and wheel combos until I reached the conclusion to stick with what I had, only with new faceplates. The Zombie Max tires have over 2 years of use, are already taped, and I'm gonna use them up :)

I just needed to go back to zero offset on the faceplates, so I got my dimensions from the old faceplates. I decided I didn't want to mess with hexes, so they are slotted and I'm using screws instead of locknuts with these. Also I made the outer 4-40 screws countersunk to clean up the look. There's 8 or 9 hours in the wheels, time well spent IMO. I considered making some faux lugbolt holes in the center, I may make some changes to them. I'd like to hear opinions on that...

Comparison shot, and back side.
