ItsMeNickG’s Black Beauty FL5 Build

[ItsMeNickG]

How did you get them Rpf1 to fit. I don't really want to buy a second set of Regamasters those would work just fine lol

They’re redrilled! 5mm spacers on the front.

Who redrilled them if it's custom what is the procedure.

Their Instagram is @fm_wheels. I’m not entirely sure of the process but I have no issues with the wheels .

Yeah, I’ve come across this place before. The spacers make sense, these wheels’ face profiles might have issues with caliper clearance. I was excited to see their nt03+m fitment, until you see it’s more of a rear fitment face with no caliper clearance.
Have you gone to extended lugs yet?

Did my oil change, installed my cooling plate, and put on my extended wheel studs!

Just installed extended studs on the front yesterday!

Are you going to track the new wheel setup? Spacers freak me out for hard drives. However those rims are really dope.

I already have! I tracked on them without the extended studs and there were no issues. I just made sure my wheels were torqued in between sessions.

I'd be more confident in something like that rather than aftermarket.
To me there's just something about them that doesn't really inspire confidence in using them.
Also I'm a little worried about the integrity of re drilling the rims. They are stress test for something other than 5 x 120.

Other than my regamasters those are my favorite

I was just talking spacers. I would think of them as a wear item and replace accordingly

I've never used them. I'm going to email enkei and see if I can get some for fl5. The wheels would sell like hotcakes especially for track guys.
