Re: Wheel Problem (pics)
every car is different and there is noway you will find the exact fit unless it came off another car of the same make, if ur lucky.
miasto cars are the easiest to work with since the suspension is the same for most cars and you can also undo the whole suspension and just take out the spindle and then fabricate it to fit with aftermarket wheels. for these wheels all it takes is a drill with the correct size bits to bore out the hole on the new rim to fit onto the spindle shaft and ur done. ofcourse the white nylon bushing has to be cut first to expose the rest of the shaft. you might need to shorten the spindle shaft or grind down the tubing on the new rim to obtain the correct offset that you want. other makers will require some more thinking before breaking off something ![]() Tools needed ![]() files ![]() wire cutter
