wheel adapters
im a 1st semester body and paint student and we are to come up with a project. we are learning welding and since i just got some new rims ,that dont fit, does anyone have the dimensions or a site that does have dimensions for wheel adapters. so i can fabricate my own. my instructor is getting me the correct steel to use so all i need is a dimension drawing.

I've never see an adpt. that was really safe. Why not re drill the wheels to fit your bolt pattern? It would be easier and safer and cheaper.

with the wheel being 5x4.5 and my car 5x4.75, that is a .25inch overal bolt pattern. so for each stud hole that means i would just need to make it 0.05inch larger(longer)??

Just drill the wheels bolt pattern on the axle and hub flange.
