I have the chance to pick up some 7x18 4 1/4” backspace (et6)wheels for my 68 Signet. Front hubs are the ‘dreaded’ Wilwood conversions, but I have both the centre bore measurement and mounting face to centre cap measurement which will accommodate the hub sizes.
Where I am unsure is where in the arch the wheel will sit. As the conversion doesn’t push the hubs out I’m guessing a large backspace isn’t necessary, but if anyone has fitted this size, or similar backspace on drums or the same conversion I’d be interested to know/see clearance. I’m planning on lowering the front a little.
Thanks if you got this far and didn’t fall asleep…
