I want to run Hurst wheels on my OCC. Adapters look as if they would push the wheel into the quarter panel. Would an F-Body rear end fix this? What does the peanut gallery recommend? Thanks in advance...

Hurst wheels look great on our OCCs,dont think a F body axle would be heavy enough for our wagons.What about running a set of 15x7s and a set of 1.5 inch wide adapters?

Redrill your axles and drums for the smaller bolt pattern. Run an adapter in the front, or, use 3rd gen F body 1LE rotors (B body rotor with smaller pattern, no ABS ring, but can be added).

Interesting I had been looking at these wheels also last year saw Jetfire88's OCC with Olds rallys and it looked great I will post a photo later if you like. Jeff

Thanks for all the advice...Think Im going to search out an SS rear to pick up the discs and try the redrill method. I would like to run the 17x8's
