Larger stock wheels
#1
For the owners that would like to maintain the stock look and update the wheel profile to 21st Century or just to accomodate larger brake assemblies see what you think of these:-

Clearly done on Photoshop. The front wheel is too big but the rear is well proportioned:-

This one was modified from a DMCH proposed wheel apparently:-

The above allows the brake assemlies to be more visible. Looks like a Genereal Lee wheel.

I like the stock looking wheel. If DMCH were to make a larger alloy, they would surely sell more of the stock look than any other design.

I agree, i have yet to see a nicer looking alloy than the stock one. A slightly larger size would be nice but im not holding my breath on a replacement set of those just yet Smile

Funny, I prefer the look of the original-wheels-with-huge-comedy-tyres at the rear to these modern looking ones. I'm not sure any extra area is needed for brakes at the rear anyway... better brakes at the front would be nice but I'm not sure the wheels could be made to not look stupid.
