Re: Bolt spacing , width and back space - 39 Paxkard six

Posted by ewrecks On 2021/4/3 0:35:40

Bringing up an old topic and hope to get an answer.
Summit offers a painted wire wheel that they believed would fit the 39 six. I had them send one and discovered they were wrong.
The wheel would not fit over the center hub and the holes for the lug bolts was too small diameter.
I am getting mixed numbers for the required diameter of the hole for the hub but lug spacing has been quotes as 5x5 or 5x 4.5”
Still no answer on required back space.
I would like to put painted wire wheels or artillery wheels on the car but original artillery prices are too high for a six...and still have issue of cost of center cap or possible beauty rings.
Can anyone confirm the lug spacing and hub diameter ?
Has anyone found a reproduction artillery or wire wheel for this type of car?
Any info appreciated.
