Vintage speed tire question
#8
Brad, remember that in order to prevent tube chafing, you should fill the left overĀ half hole in the inner half of the wheel. I just did this this week on my CT wheels with the Will Rogers' spacers. I carefully aligned the two spacers, face to face, and drilled the hole right on the joint between the spacers so you get a perfect half hole in each spacer. I filled the left-over half holes in the inner wheel halves with JB Weld after making dams of thin aluminum and waxed paper, and carefully roughing the surface around each half hole, and the inner surface of the half hole, then I cleaned the surfaces with carb/brake cleaner. My patches came out great, and are hard as a rock. You almost can't see them after paint. Ted
