ROAD WHEELS

Post by Graham Ord »

How are the road wheel hub caps held on. The drawing has a 25mm pcd for the hole centres drilled through the flange but not through the 26mm spigot on the back which I presume fits into the 26 mm recess in the road wheel. The road wheels are not shown drilled and tapped. It does not seem to work out?

They are drilled all the way thru Gram but the holes are centered slightly in from the edge the edge. I guess it is to force them to wedge into the road wheel and hold the caps on by friction as part of the rivit will be mashed when the caps are fitted to the wheel.
I can send you a photo if you like.
If your not living on the edge, your taking up to much space.
