Fit Late-Model Wheels on a Vintage Mustang
|
4 If your car has the original wheel studs that are threaded all the way to the outside end of the stud, then this issue isn't likely to be a problem. However, if your car (like ours) has replacement studs, you may be limited as to which wheels you can use with the adapters. Many replacement studs have a tapered end (like ours) about 1/8-inch long that's not threaded. This makes the stud stick out past the wheel adapter. If this is the case with your car, use a wheel that has hollow pockets cast into the back of the wheel between the stud holes, which will allow the extra stud length to sit inside the pockets on the wheels. You won't be able to use a wheel that's solid between the adapter's stud holes on the backside of the wheel. The solution would be to either use a different wheel, or if you're intent on using wheels without pockets, install shorter OEM-type studs. View Related Article
