I modified a space saver wheel off a honda car it has the same hole pattern as the ca , I just bored the centre hole out a bit and moved the centre of the rim in a bit and re welded it , they are a cheap way of replacing rust rims and the tyres work well

Since you cut the centers loose, could you just cut the center out of your old rim and welded it into the doughnut rim and have a similar look of original rim?

There should be a bunch of those in the junkyards. I can't imagine very many people chasing after a space saver wheel.

Sure hope the tire was offa the rim, when you welded on it, if not, there may be a big BOOM, in medical bills...

Keep an eye on the lug nuts. Those rims should have a metric bolt pattern.

I just bought new rim blanks and riveted them on the old wheel centers to make it look like the original ones.

he is from Australia.......... availability and not-common between USA and Australia might be part of the problem.

I put a set of them on a Farmall A. Used the rims that were on there. Never had a problem so I guess they fit the narrower rim. Sure made it better cutting grass.
