wheel adapters

#1 Post by Frank Earle »

Can anyone inform me what the mm measurement is for the wide 5-bolt pattern on our wheels? What type/size adapter would be required to bolt, say 5.5 x 15 Fuchs or Mahles, on to a T-5's brake drum hubs? Will either one of the wheels mounted with 185/60 x15 tire fit all right inside the fender wells and not restrict the steering?

Any information on this subject(s) will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Ther smaller diameter is 5 X 130 where the larger diameter is 5 x 205. The adapters can be purchased from CB perfomance. I had the cast adapters until recently when I purchased billett ones from 356 specialties. The billett are more money but safer and no vibration on the front end. 356 specialties is in the registry and located in Scottsdale, AZ.
