Ok so who has the most dish? I have 110mm on the rear, will post pics tongiht of my car,
Thought it would be interesting to see who has how much dish, if possible, please post a pic with a tape measure/ruler/credit card (as they are a standard size) sitting in the dish. and state whether u can tuck the rims under the guards.
kind of want to follow the 'how low can you go' thread with this one.
Personally not a great fan of huge dish but I have seen some cars that look great with it.
I also believe that a lot of cars have 'fake' dish. This is that the hub has a backward connection to the circular part that the tyre is mounted on (can't think of the name at the moment )
True dish is that which is outwards of the hub, in my opinion of course....
Bring on the pics _________________

I am also not a massive dish fan.
I think it looks hot if you pull it off right, but fake dish = ghey.
As JV said, fake dish is where your spokes bend backwards from the middle in order to maximise 'dish' on the edge.. how many dishes do you know that bend upwards in the middle? retarded. dishes have a flat bottom -- so should your rims.
Too many posers in civics with '100% fake' dish going round talking about their fulli sik dish when it just looks dumb.
Dish should be measured from the center of the rim to the outside edge. _________________

i would, but only because the hub doesnt sink bcak to the original level of the dish.. my spokes stick out to but theyre in an arc and the hub is the same level as the inner side of the dish..
i personally think that that Aristo with those massive wide rims in the pics above looks a bit shit doesnt look good at all just my opinion sorry to the owner...What purpose would having that wide a rim neway??? massive power????
