disc brakes

has anyone able to get OG steelies to work with the disc brakes?
I was thinking of using spacer and longer wheel studs maybe 1/2 longer?
just trying to fig out which way to go other than replacing the rims.

Re: disc brakes

You could try these. A lot easier then doing all the spacers and studs. The picture is of a 5 lug but it is just a representation. The wheel is a 6 Lug 6" wide wheel. You can get them all the way up to 10". https://www.summitracing.com/parts/w...6334/overview/

Re: disc brakes

I used bolt on spacers on the front of my old '66 since I had already repainted the wheels to match.

Re: disc brakes

I’ll second what Chevy Fleetside suggested. I’m running the wheels from Summit on my CPP disc brakes. Works like a charm.
