Ease my Hub-Centric whoa's...
Well, I'm gonna get these turbines from a friend for free. But, they're from 'those other guys' and have a 5" opening. Hub-Centric GM wheels are roughly 4 5/8 (corrected me if I'm wrong). (I've also a Chrysler spare that has a 4 3/4 opening.)
Do the Ford hubs bear the weight, i.e. hubcentric, at that size (5")? I think that the hub sizes are roughly the same as GM? Thats how Ford/Dodge D60 axles can be used on our trucks. If not hub-centric, then the lugs must carry the weight. So then, why can't these safely be used on GM hubs? Or, is it more a matter of centering these wheels on a hub that is smaller than its' opening? These turbines have a flat lug nut surface. The Chrysler spare and GM spare (both steel) have beveled lug nut surfaces... I suppose these are for acorn style lug nuts? I just wanna use these wheels! Old Creek
