XSNRG Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Will EA81 spoke wheels fit? I thought they would but a friend said they rub on his? I was planning on using a set but want to make sure they will fit. Is there a early style spoke that fits the gen I besides Jackmans?

junkyardgabe Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Qman had a set of jackmans in the market place for sale that would fit it which is the white spoke of that time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbrat Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 the 80-84 style white spoke should be okay, but there was a change from 82 to 83 with the inside ring size. not sure if the offset changed... The 85-89 style rub on the rear trailing arm unless you use a spacer. I have a set of 4 of the 4 slot alloys from 1974 that will work too. they need some serious cleaning/bead blasting though, and no centercaps... $100 shipping included.

75skunkaroo Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 i have the EA-81 wheels on my '75 and have had no probs McBrat, if i only had the money:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XSNRG Posted March 4, 2004 Author Share Posted March 4, 2004 Thanks for the info.... I probably need the jackmans, I tried EA81 spokes and they rubbed, didn't check the manufacture date. Thanks for the offer Mick, I'm thinking white spoke will really look at home on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qman Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 I still got them with brand new tires and a spare to match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XSNRG Posted March 8, 2004 Author Share Posted March 8, 2004 How good are the wheels? What size brand tires? How much $$$. Thanks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qman Posted March 8, 2004 Share Posted March 8, 2004 There is some dirt on the wheel you see but they are in very good shape and I have the screw down Jackman centers for them too. They are Bridgestones and practicaly brand new. The spare is just as good just needs to be painted to match. The size is 165/80R13.
