Default Wheel adapters

There aren't a lot of options for wheels for fbodies, unless you go with a custom three piece wheel which runs about 3k for a set of four wheels. I would rather take a ski trip then put that much money in wheels. I did find a company in California that make wheel adapters and wanted your opinions. I won't road race or drag with them, but this opens up the field of wheel choices. They run about $65 per adapter.

You'll still need a custom offset with the spacers

A qualtiy adpter with quality lug studs is about as strong factory mounting, I have no quams running adapters.

Spacers, I would recommended longer and stronger lug studs.

A wheel and hub centric unit is even better.
