Yet Another Replacement Wheel Question.....

Jun 28, 2003 0 Replies

I'm replacing the wheels on my 86 740 turbo in order to relieve some bent wheel wobble.



In my research, I've read that there are some wheels that I can buy that just bolt onto the lugs without regard for securing on the hub; thus, resulting in a off-balance wheel after a while.



I'm trying to avoid this, but am not sure what to ask when looking in order to determine if a particular wheel is the right kind or the wrong kind.



Then, there is the question about these rings or spacers to make wheels fit my car.....are these acceptable, or a poor attempt at a fix?



Since I'm doing this for function more than looks, I'm skimping on the cost a bit. I found some FINN wheels locally with the right bolt pattern and in the price range I wanted (low), but can't figure out what else I need to know if they'll fit right or not.



Can anyone fill in the gaps of my knowledge so that I can make the best choice?



Thanks!!
