Riddler wheel fitment problems?
 
Hey guys got a set of riddler wheels for my dads 72 and for some reason the hub is to small on the rotor for the wheels they won't centre propally is there a adapter a can buy to make them fit by chance?? Anyone else had this problem before

Hello. Just put some on my truck and had to run them on a lathe. I also run a 1/4" spacer.

Do a google search for hubcentric rings!
They're made to make wheels with a bigger centre bore fit a smaller hub.

I am running Riddler's on my '72. Just make sure you use lug centric lug nuts.

They are the cone type self centering lug nuts. The difference is the weight of the vehicle is on the lug studs vs the hub center. Read this article maybe it will be more clear.

My boy ordered those for his truck the holes in the hubs were to small he cut them out with a dremel took him a long time , I have a boring machine for motorcycle cylinders it cuts like a lathe and these would be easy to set up on my machine I told him we could have bored them out on the machine ,
