Default Re: Motor Wheel "Fly" wheels

Tony,

------Good for you.Glad you got them.You are correct in your lug-nut assesment.The problem is that the hole is larger than any nut you are going to find out there.I had some sleeves machined up that slipped over any currently available shank style lug-nut.Make sure what ever nuts you buy,that they extend almost all the way thru the wheel.Also dont over torque these wheels as the spacer is aluminum as well and you can damage them.Ive got the torque figure written down somewhere,but cant lay my hands on it.Maybe another member can give us a good figure.
------Good luck trying to find another pair.Ill keep my eyes open for you.......Bill S.......ol red!
------P.S....Make sure you take a good long look at your wheels,as they were manufactured for drag-racing only.Any small fissures around the bolt holes,or anywhere for that matter would give me pause as to using them!
