| Hey guys I've learned kind of an unsettling thing on the upgrade to disc brakes. The only way to get them to seat right was to run a spacer on my front. This pushes out my Cragers S/S wheels a bit. Now everyone says it should be fine, but I'm a little concerned with running a unilug wheel set up on something with a spacer, especially if I'm running close to 100 mph at the track often. So I'm asking my esteemed car brothers if they could give me there opinion and give suggestions for rims or to tell me i'm just being paranoid about this issue. I'm looking for a 15 inch rim, no this is not negotiable. Thanks as always  Mike | |

| Are those the wheels with the elongated holes that use a goofy washer to match the bolt pattern of the car? Are your wheels hubcentric? How thick of a spacer? | |

| Cragar classics come in a bunch of different offsets that may work for you. They would still fit the overall "theme" of your vehicle. | |

Only you would suggest something this gay! The reason for the 15 inch is because the 14's will no longer fit with the disc brakes. So Steve I can get the Cragers without the uni bolt pattern huh? That might be the way to go, because I really like them. Also, thanks for the compliments on the Coronet. Mike | |

| I would like to see the wheels from Peters new car on that thing, but that's just me!
Once again, nice car man. I have yet to see it in person! | |
