Wheels for CSR front end
Hey all
Any advise on diameter and or back space on wheels to use on CSR front end with HQ stubs and front mount rack
The standard HQ rims rub on the steering, CSR recon Chev Ralley rims are the go
I want to keep the diameter as small as possible
Cheers
Gazza

Re: Wheels for CSR front end
Are they rubbing o the steering arms or the wishbones ? If its just the arms you can space them in to clear - another job the half arsed rod shop should have alreday done ................
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Re: Wheels for CSR front end
Steering arms are the spacers legal? Will I need longer studs?
The CSR gear has required a lot of tweaking to fit! A bit disappointing really

Yes and yes , as long as you machine up a spacer , dont just whack a heap of washers on there ............
CRS gear has needed a lot of tweaking to fit since day one , which would be fine if they actually did something about making it right but for 20 years its been the same

Re: Wheels for CSR front end
I've had to get my wheels (on the EK and FB) off-set changed to stop this problem.
I asked the wheel joint for a HR disc off-set and they knew exactly what I wanted .
