 |
|
Hi All,
I am working on a Deserter GT project and bought a set of drop spindles with disk brakes in a VW 4 bolt pattern. I have been trying to find a set of slotted rims but, none are easily available. I found a website with what I want in a Chevy pattern. My problem is that with the adaptors they will stick out too far. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get a set of discs that would fit on the spindles in a Chevy pattern.
thanks for the help

| Find blank rotors, those with no holes for studs. Then have them drilled fo your chevy pattern. Any good machine shop should be able to do the work at a reasonable price. |

Are these the wheels you are looking for?

Yes these are the ones that I am looking for. I was trying to find 5.5 inch and 10 inch rims but, they are very hard to find in the 4 bolt pattern. |

For those of you that may be interested. I had contacted US mags and there Indy - U101 wheels look exactly like the slotted rims I was looking for. They had told me that they can drill a 4 lug in 15x5, 15x7 and 15x8. All the other sizes come with the five cap screw holes pre-tapped.
We COULD drill a 4 lug 15x9 but you would have the five cap screw holes visible which most people would not accept. I did not find out any details about cost. At this point I will go replacing the drums and rotors with the Chevy pattern. Thanks for all your help. |
