What Steel Wheels to use??

[earlyholdenfan]

Hi all!
I am having a slight dilema with fitment of wheels at the minute.
I have a rebuilt HR front end in the sedan, and with all of the steel rims I have tried in 14 inch they rub the calipers.
I bought some new ROH rims and the foul so badly the wheels cant be turned, the std HR 13 rims fit and clear the calipers but I need / want to stick with 14's can anyone help me out with info or rims to suit, not chasing mags just std steel wheels in a perfect wprld around 6 or seven inch?
Cant use spacers either as the engineer will not pass them and there isnt anyone locally (Rockhampton) that can help out so any info is appreciated

Have you tried torana rims? LH/LX?

The standard 14" rims from HG and HT will fit the HR front end without fouling.  Unfortunately they are hard to source.

Don't bother with HK rims as they are the wrong offset.

Some Volvo rims also fit - I'm not sure which models.

Matt, what rims have you tried apart from the new ROH ones you mention?  The only 14 inch wheels with early Holden pattern are HK HT & HG (apart from the Volvo rims) so have you tried these?
I agree with earlee, since the HK/T/G disc and brake caliper looks very similar to the HR unit, the rim should fit.
I have a set of HG rims for sale if you can use them.

Thanks Ken I will grab them off you and give them a try!

will send you a PM to get details

I have tried a set of 14 inch Dragways, 14 inch (what I thought to be HK rims) no go, Torrie fit but can only find 13's and my std set of 13 HR ones seem to work as well, so hopefully the HG ones of Ken's will work

Thanks for the Super Fast responses and Help!

Hey matt,

Did you end up with a set of 14s that fit?

I have run 6x14 HK rims set up for standard front track plus 25mm. This results in the inner rim 12 mm closer to top ball joint. No fouling on calipers or steering.
