Who make the best wheel adapters?
As the title says, who makes the absolute best wheel adapters? I don't really wanna use them but have no choice. Looking for 5x5, 2", preferably hub-centric. Adaptitusa.com has USA made ones, even with 14x1.5 lugs to match my front rotors, but I believe theirs are lug centric.
Thanks |

Re: Who make the best wheel adapters?
Never use adapters , Buy the right wheels or the right parts to fix the problem .

Well, my rear end is 4" narrower than my front assembly. I can run it as is but it looks funky from the back. I would need a 2" backspace rim, or a 4" wider differential, or wheel adapters. I don't think the first two exist. |

Re: Who make the best wheel adapters?
I'm curious as to what you're wanting to run these on and what wheels specs you currently have? I have 6" BS fronts and 4" BS rears all on 22x9s and that looks pretty good on my '68. My point is, you don't need impossible to find wheels to eat up the difference in front to rear track width.

Front is perfect, back is really close to the frame and can rub, need them kicked out a bit. |

Re: Who make the best wheel adapters?
Try wheeladapter.com. Fred goeske. He does everything to order. I gave him all my specs and he built a set for my 56 Packard that fit snug on the inside and was a perfect hub centric for my wheels. A few mic measurements and he will build and ship them. They are a bit pricey but I felt safer than some crappy eBay ones. Put 1k miles on them and no issues.

Re: Who make the best wheel adapters?
Bora makes some very nice wheel spacers/adapters. They will make any bolt pattern and width.
