Default

They never used run flats on the 13" rims so they're reasonably easier to get off the rims. Actually all of mine came right off with but a few blows with a hammer. All the bolts spun right off with a 3/4" impact wrench too. The only issue is the little warning plate on all of them is rusted away quite bad.

Default wheel adapters....

Today I received the first sample of the C8 rear wheel adapters that I had made. As I don't have the correct front axle or hubs, I will need four to mount the original C8 wheels on my truck.
Made of 6061 aluminum. Had the double sided cone washers made also since I couldn't source them from anyone. Still uses the original C8 lug nuts, although they will all need to be right-hand threads.
Fit great, so gave the OK to make the rest.
Had two extra adapters made if anyone needs a pair.
Oh, if anyone need a set of the Trelleborg tires, there are still 8 sitting in a warehouse in Georgia, and I bought one extra that I won't need, so.....
Thanks, David
