Anybody running anything thicker than 1"? I have a couple 2" adapters (made in USA) I was planning to use my CCW's with on the 67, but it's not going to work and I'm going a different route..let me know if you want them cheap (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) I can get the exact sizing but i believe they are 12mm 1.5... and no, I haven't ran them edit, they are: 5 lug 4.75" to 5 lug 4.75" 12mm x 1.5 grade 8 hardened steel pressed-in studs are hub centric This post has been edited by Chris Ronson Jr: Apr 15 2011, 05:50 PM

I was going to go to an Enkei NT03+M-F1. These wheels are quoted as race wheels and very light and inexpensive but I just closed a deal on some 2001 forged Z06 wheels for $600 and they are only about 1/2 lb heavier so I will need hub centric spacers. I've tried to research offset for these wheels but haven't come up with anything yet so when I find out I will let you know if they will work. I'm finally going to get some 315's on the back of my '69 (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
