Default Bolt on or pin drive wheels
I need to replace my 16" dia Compomotive HB wheels with the 17" versions to be able to mount high performance tires. I was originally going to order the bolt-ons like I have now. Compomotive offers the pin drive adapters and wheels like several other wheel brands do. What is life like with pin drives? I do that you safety wire them but are there other issues? vibration? more unsprung weight? wider track required (I guess this could be accounted for in the specs of these 3 piece wheels)? I know that the pin drive wheels and adapters look original and cost more. Thanks
