GadiantonRob Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Those who don't go on VFRW just recently missed the "Sunofwolf" era. Those who know, know. Those who don't, consider yourselves lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rc4six Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Guess when the time is right, SCORE!!!!!!!!!!!! Got both for $180 delivered. Anyone need a 1990 front wheel? How wide is that rear wheel? Be aware that there are two versions of the 4-bolt 8-spoke wheel. 4.5x17 qnd 5.5x17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duccmann Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 1990...shit did not know that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rc4six Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 1990...shit did not know that The 5.5x17 gen 3 wheel has no lip around the lug bolt holes . . . the narrower 4.5x17 wheel's bolt holes do, as your photo shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer sa1713 Posted January 12, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted January 12, 2015 Look on the inside of one of the spokes and the dimensions will be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Cogswell Posted January 12, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted January 12, 2015 If the markings are obscured by dirt buildup, you can also measure the distance between the bead seating surfaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer vfrcapn Posted January 12, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted January 12, 2015 What was the 4.5" wheel from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rc4six Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 1990...shit did not know that I'm hoping I'm wrong for your sake. But I swear I came across somewhere in my research a couple of years ago that a narrower 8-spoke exists. I may have confused the NC24 wheel, a 4.5x18 wheel. Like Cogswell says . . . measure the distance between the bead seating surfaces. http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/index.php/topic/49611-rear-wheelstires-the-end-all-discussion/ NC24 Wheel: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Kel Posted January 12, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted January 12, 2015 I was going to say NC24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer vfrcapn Posted January 12, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted January 12, 2015 That's a standard 3G wheel he bought, with the little directional arrows. The 400's all used 18" wheels too, before the '94, then they were all center nut. I was going to say NC24. Which wheel are you using on the R?

duccmann Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Well, it's in the mail...I certainly hope you have it backwards . We will see by Thursday. Wish the backside of the wheel was cleaner and a higher resolution so I could read the markings and calm down.......I need a shot of scotch now..fingers crossed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish the backside of the wheel was cleaner and a higher resolution so I could read the markings and calm down.......I need a shot of scotch now..fingers crossed I'm thinking that you're in good shape.

Member Contributer Duc2V4 Posted January 16, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted January 16, 2015 Well the goods came in today and so we can now end the suspense...It IS the 5.5 width wheel. So now Duccmann and I can get his tire off his old rim, get his new (to him) 8 spoke rim to the powder coater! Looks like the right one to me... Look closely and you'll see 5.50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Cogswell Posted January 16, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted January 16, 2015 Congratulations! That one looks like it's in nice shape. If the powdercoater comes through for the amount quoted above, you'll have a nice 8 spoke totally re-finished for around $250. Quite a deal!

duccmann Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 $155...with powder coating....quite a deal indeed.....
