Sometime back I picked up a set of used 5 pin Knock off wheels including the universal (Chevy or Ford) hubs. They are 7.5 X 15 & 9.5 X 15 wheels. I finally got around to trying them on my CR1. Now I find the front work fine but the rears are too wide! They stick out of the rear fender almost 2 inches. Over an inch of that alone is the adaptor.
So Now I have to either choose different wheels like the bolt on style wheel, keep the (IMHO the original, ugly) black 8" wheels that Classic Roadsters supplied, or replace the rear wheels with 7.5 " wide knock offs. Just purchasing two wheels of the knock off wheels is more than the cost of the whole set with adaptors that I already purchased.
Its not like I'm trying to build an exact replica, obvious since I purchased a CR1!
Suggestions?
