Curious what these 4 types of wheels are?ahgrafx wrote: Mon Sep 09, 2019 3:35 pm
Thank you Greg. my exact word was "imagination" I feel creativity is a bit harsh as I feel we are all creative in our own way where-as if there are many wheels out there that would fit on our cars and I still saw that only "4 types" were still being used I would say that is a lack of "imagining" what your car could look like with other options.
thanks David, Ted said that i have a 4.5 or 5.5 inch tire so that would be 36mm offset? kinda confused...pebbles wrote: Mon Sep 09, 2019 9:46 pm Lay a straight edge across the face of the drum. Measure to the spring and the outer wheel well.
Average (safe) Datsun Roadster backspace, (to the spring) is 4.75†(4.9†will touch).
