Yeah, early/short axle/swing axle. Front extended uppers and lowers will deff make a huge difference centering the front wheels in the wheel well. Narrow beam is function as much as it is looks.. you can get full lock-to-lock turning without hitting the fenders on a slammed bug. Without narrowed beam you'll hit the fenders.
Man love those wheels 🔥 I would love to put those wheels on my 63 bug or my 74 thing. What does something like that cost. Hard to find on the east coast.
Yeah I can do an episode on how steel wheels are assembled. I build both welded 2-Piece wheels and Wire wheels. Both use many of the same basic parts so I will combine it into one episode. I will not show welding or truing as I have built most of my own jigs and tooling over the years that allow me to build certain wheels that my competitors cannot 😁
Dude use better safety when changing out the wheels!! Never sit with ya feet/legs under a vehicle that's only raised by a trolley jack. those new wheels are sweet!!
Sorry, I only do steel wheels from 13" to 18" because I only know how to weld on steel alloy metal, and not aluminum or stainless. The wheel diameters because I have jigs for those diameters.
Now just because I can't do it myself, doesn't mean I don't have a source 😁 If you're really serious about getting them done shoot me a DM on IG and I'll get you setup 😉
Both are setup for 64 and earlier bug/beetle. I don't really use offset as I use back space when building. All tires sizes are in the description area in my videos with links on where to buy for the lowest prices.
awesome thanks for that @@R9Garage I saw the tire sizes after I posted this. And what about BS numbers, et can be calculated from that, or I can work off of BS
