Help Identify My Wheels!

[JustinFormosa]

Hello all,

I have myself a set of 18" work equip 05s. And there are a few interesting things about them thats making it difficult to work out what exactly they are specs wise.

For one they measure 11.5" and 10.5" overall making them 10.5" and 9.5" wide, the barrels are 8", faces .5" and lips 2" rear 1" front.

As for diameter thats where they get interesting, and I'm yet to find another set like them. The face is a 32 bolt work equip 05, and the lips step out to 18" - Inner diameter of lips are 365mm, bolt diamieer is 380mm and distance between bolts is 38mm

I know 32 bolt equip faces are normally 16" but the lips don't look like double steps to step them out to 18" so unless work made a 32 bolt 17" face I'm stumped.

Can anybody tell me what style and diameter faces these are?
Also can anybody tell me if these are single or double step lips?
Also can anybody tell me where I can find replacement lips to suit?

Updated broken Images, seriously nobody can help?

Refer to the top sticky in this section.

I did but the information I'm chasing is a little more specific regarding where to find specific parts and as to the history of them. Will post there as well though

Measure them. Not sure what you mean by style.

Also can anybody tell me if these are single or double step lips?
Double step.

Also can anybody tell me where I can find replacement lips to suit?
Try VRwheels.

Well I was convinced they weren't double step lips, which would mean the faces are a 32 bolt 17" when they are normally 36, so maybe they were an older model equip. But your second answer confirming they a double step means there just a plain old 32 bolt 16" face with double step lips to 18"

Thanks for your help. Could you point out the difference between that of a single step and a double step lip too? Because Mine only "step" out from the face once before leveling out then lipping for the tyre bead.

I am fairly certain that it is a 16" bumped up to 18". The best way to confirm would be to measure your face and then measure a 16" or 17" face to compare.
Here is a 17" step lip 32 bolt Equip. If you were to reverse lip that fce, you would have a 16" wheel.

Yeah by the look of those the step is smaller, mine are a single "step" as such but the step itself brings the rim out to an 18" so just a regular 16" face. The next question is where can I buy or get lips made to suit? Tried VRwheels and they don't have anything like what I'm after.

Any help would be appreciated

The kinda look like the next size up of mine.



I think these just happen to be fairly old 05s. I've never seen these particular equips relipped.

hi

[JustinFormosa]

What are the specs for the above? They are 32 bolt but the lips look a little different to mine. Not as big maybe. What do the barrels look like?

[Dave_The_BMXER]

Those specific ones are 17x9.

These photos suck but it's all I have right now




Wheels are in storage right now otherwise I'd take new ones.

[JustinFormosa]

the lips look literally identical to mine. but my barrels have three steps whereas yours only have two. I think its going to be just about impossible to find this style of lip. can anybody recommend anybody that could custom make them? I'm located in aus so what would be best but if not worldwide will do, just as long as they ship.

[zoo]

No, they literally dont.
Look at the bolt area - on his wheels the bolts are right next to the edge, yours have more room.
Same on the valve stem area.
