the back is 4 inch wide and a different shape to the front,
its also in the original gold colour on the back. the front dishes are made that size. but im not sure what car they would have been on
maybe a bmw.
my brother wants them for his caddy, he might shorten the axle so they
fit under the arches.

Was going to shorten axle on mine when i was going to run wide rimmage. Still cant see them working though due to the ET. There's only so much you can take off the axle before drum or disc hits inner arch. Give or take you'll need space for flex in chassis aswell.

Think your gunna end up rebuilding the 2 wide wheels imho fella
