Where to buy bolt-on wheel spacers?

I already asked this in the '60-'66 Forum, so please delete if double posting is frowned upon. I thought I might get more traction over here....


I need a set of 1" wheel spacers (6 x 5.5") for the rear of a '66 GMC fleet side to correct a wheel back-spacing issue. A search on line provided me with a wealth of information for Toyota or newer Chevy hub-centric spacers with metric studs. I need (want) standard 7/16" lug bolts so I don't have to mess with two separate sets of lug nuts and wheel locks for the front and back. Are there sites/venders that sell wheel spacers for older vehicles with the non-metric studs?

Thanks

My mom always had the best advice. It was just a tad late. After a fall that involved blood, she'd say....."Careful!"

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Looks like US Wheel Adapters also provides custom order spacers (width, pattern, lug bolt thread, etc.).

Thanks for your replies

Re: Where to buy bolt-on wheel spacers?

Heres another option. I bought spacers from here over 5 years ago and they are working great. Although I will be switching to the motorsport-tech adapters as I want to get the hub centric adapters. It will make it much easier to mount the rims.
