17 inch wheel
Need to replace my front right rim. I live in Oklahoma which makes Michigan roads look like Pebble beach greens. I took it to a repair shop, but it is not only 4 mm flatter on one side, but also slightly twisted. I went to the backdraft racing website and parts section, only had 18, I have 17 polished rims only, not the fully polished.
Who is the manufacture of the rims, did not see any stamps on the rim itself. Thanks |
Do you have a bolt on wheel?

No, it is a knock off wheel. The hub has a large threaded central hub that projects out, and the wheel slides over this and the knock off spindle holds it in place. I see that SPF have a "pin" style, not for sure what this is, but this rim was ordered and placed by Backraft at the factory.

Suggest you call Backdraft Parts - Roadster and Mustang Parts and get a hold of Mike. There's a limited number of those style wheels left. They are changing over to a new supplier soon. Get'em while they last...

Will do and thank you very much.
Question, my hub has 5 hex bolts that protrude that line up with 5 holes in the tire, is that considered a 5 pin tire. The confusion is that I have a boat that has a 2 pin prop, basically on the prop shaft there are two pins that extrude from it and they line up in the hub of the prop, that has two slits in it, holding the prop in place, so I consider that a pin. I envision a 5 or 6 pin tire, having a similar pin sticking up that corresponds to notches in the hub portion, though this is probably incorrect. Thank you again for all of your time and help. |
