She's going to look sweet. I'm having trouble uploading pics but I finished my wheel mounting. For starters I thank you for all the helpful info you provided me and I will and already have paid it forward. Discovered a few small hiccups along the way. Had to trim the wheel studs down about 1/4" so the second plate on the adapter can fit flush with first one. Also needed shallow 1/2x20 acorns for that because stock were too long. added another hour to the job but no biggie. Could not find any type of rings to take up the space where wheel mounts to adapter. Didn't need the offset washers because I bought the direct drill Cragar SS wheels. I might have calculated wrong regarding the the spacers. My space between the inside tire and trunk is around 3" so I could have gotten away with a narrower adapter but no big deal. Took some short rides and feel the softness in the tires. Will take her up to highway speeds on my day off and see if I another ring is needed. Next is sissy bar. Did you make your own or have a business that does it? I'll try again to post pics.
