Title: Rear PFL wheels on front of FL cars
Post by: J88TEO on October 27, 2022, 14:00
What's the effect of putting the rear wheels of PFL cars ( 6.5J?) on the front of FL cars (6.0J)?

Don't you have to grind off a spigot or perhaps my mind is playing tricks.

I don't suppose there will be any I'll effects.
Lots of people have a square setup.
Personally I always like the pfl wheel and tyre size although getting tyres is a nightmare.

The spigots are screwed on so can be removed.

I know of someone that did it to run a true square set up.
 It will be heavier but not by much.

I have 15mm spacers at the back...
Am too tight to have the tyres removed and refitted...hence the question  ;)
