I've just got a Benen Ind. one off a guy on there, can't fault him or the product, but it's not quite a straight bolt-on, the towing eye looks like it'll need modifying a little.

hi you guys this look is very impressive and the cars featured above are indeed awesome !!
but only owning a classic myself im limited to this look
im currently running ultralite spec rims with an offset of 42 wich looks fine
but a rediculous offset would look better
so has anyone ran a bigger offset on a classic with no problems , ive rolled the arches f&b and its lowered 50mm ?
cheers

@ Rd There has been some discussion about Classic fitment but yet to see anyone running a wide wheel in the UK. I think what someone needs to do is just go for it. Yes you'll rub, your scrub and you'll wear you tyres down but you'll certainly be one of the first
