DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Hi all not been working on cars for a while & thought ad upgrade first build on a few things so Ive never liked the 4 stud wheels bought a new set of 5 wide all 4.5 in width with wheel adapters but fit great on rear but got discs on front & they wont fit because caliper is proud of disc by about an inch SO any ideas? apart from shelling out on pricey 5 wide disc conversion

About time you got your hands dirty Olly . Might have something at home that'll do the job. I'll have a look when back from work.

Hi Olly think these are what you need. I had theses on mine in the early early days of the chassis build with disks up front also.. they add an inch either side to the track.

wow yer they would be great but ive now found that tyres will rub in wheel arch i took calipers off & tried em on so dont know what to do

Here's how I did it:

Wow great work Heb mmm because wheels are chrome unable to do that but only other way is to see if i had the adaptors like yours Rich with a shortend beam & tyre change ????

Those adapters and a shortened beam should do the trick without a tyre swap? Will you do the beam yourself??

Yer al do the beam myself I done the one on the air ride but just a bit of a pain doing steering

Gone for lazy option kept old 4 studs on first build & put new wheels on other one

What wheels did you have on before Olly

Matt black ones

Get yourself a set of drumskins and your good to go. Are you going Stoneleigh?? Thinking of going on the Sunday.

Yer where do u get them from ? no not going mate to far to go in my contraption

Have a look here mate.
