Anyone else find Grant wheels a joke!

[andrewvwclassic]

Just kind of wanted to spread some disease about these cheesy hub adapter the grant wheels come with. In the defense of the venue they have a quick release for these wheels also made out of cheap aluminum. I have gone through several of these adapters in the last year and just opted to use my old 5 hole setup instead. Problem being the threads are so fine they strip at random on the small 3 bolt adapter. I have officially put these in the bunko parts pile. lack of aftermarket support for such a popular line is typical VW B.S.. If I had some time and a lot of money for machining equipment I could probably make a work around but, someone else should have already. Thanks for reading my rant.

I made my own out of a forged ford piston top...still has the ring grooves in it. They polish up nicely too

That's why I use Lecarra steering wheels.
