Juat wonderd if anybody has done the above? I have special tracks on my truck and the lock is really terrible as they rub real bad when turning so I wonderd if anybody has swapped the wheels around so in affect the wheels are inside out ie passenger put on the drivers same as it came off and vice versa. Doing so would increase the steering lock and wonderd about the ups and downs of doing so as a temporary solution till I sort some offset wheels.
wheel reversed?

No centring on tapers on modulars reversed, more stress on wheel bearings etc and outside arches is mot fail.
What you risk happening is non centered wheel, ovaled wheel stud hole centres and sheared studs and wheel falling off

iv been running mine reversed for about 4 years now on my daily driver.. never had a problem and they havent fallen off yet..
Modular wheels, certainly the ones with round holes in will not tighten down properly, I saw a set a couple of weeks ago and they had play in them between the hubs and the face of the wheels even though the nuts were overtightened, personally I thought the studs will shear at some point, it's horrific, don't do it, just go buy some offset wheels instead and don't kill someone or yourself.

He is an idiot. Don't do it , it is DANGEROUS. If you really want to do it get in touch with the people at The Darwin Awards first.

The risks far outweigh the slight inconvenience
