      Fat Lip

      Got my wheels Butnick fat lip 18 x9.5 & 18x8 Gasser D and they look great. Took them to my tyre guy ( I had him get 265 & 235 tyres the "best he could get") He says they (the wheels) are "NOT IN SPECK" on the Fat lip side and he thinks the tyres could "come off if he fits them.
      I think he is nuts also i waited 4 months (I live in New Zealand where EVERYTHING takes twice as long & costs twice the price)

      Has aneyone had problems with Fat Lip Wheels?????????



      I need to get these on the car ASAP.

      I got my Budnik FL Teardrop rims last month. Front 18x8 rear and 18x12. Had Michilen Pilot Sports mounted and balanced 2 weeks ago. Rims and tires were perfect!
