steve will have to answer i haven't got any of the rims yet he has them all greedy bastard!!!
he will let you know the measurements of dish..i think the difference between the 2 is the bevelled bit making it look deeper rather than the actual measurement.

I wana see one of us sell a modded model for over a hundred quid, it seems so hard to do no matter how much effort u put into the model (for most of us anyway) some models get over £100 in the first few days
the landies were worth every penny I just didn't have enough of them lol
