FAQ

ARE STEP LIPS AND REVERSE/FLAT LIPS INTERCHANGEABLE?

No they are not. If your wheels are equipped with reverse/flat lips, they will need to remain reverse/flat lip to keep them the same diameter. The same applies to step parts. If your wheels are equipped with step parts, they will need to remain step parts to keep them the same diameter.

Note it is possible to step up a set of reverse/flat lip wheels but it will also go up in diameter. Example: If you have a set of 18" reverse/flat lip wheels, it is possible to step convert them up to 19". Additional machining may be required. Please contact us with any questions. 

WHAT DOES ORIGINAL CONDITION FACES MEAN?
