250r 10 inch front Rim

[Mr. Clean]

If I were to have a custom made 10 inch front rim, what would be the specs? 4/170 bolt pattern, 6 inches wide like stock and what about offset? Should It be more narrow? Thanks for the help.

[SYKO]

what do you have in mind mike?? billys got all the specs, hopefully I can get one made here soon

[Mr. Clean]

I am tired of dealing with slim tire selection, calling for prices from douglas. they told me for a red label $74 + $30 (custom rim fee) total $104 4-12 weeks. I dont mind waiting.

[Kintore]

Talk to Derrick Adams on the boards, he has a custom rim 10in. He can tell you all the dimensions, wait time, blah blah and hes raced it all season so he can tell you how it holds up and all that good stuff.

[Mr. Clean]

Thanks kintore

Add their contact info to that post, I need to order one but I was thinking 10x5.

[Mr. Clean]

Last night I received the 10" front rim. I ordered it on 1/23 so not a bad turn around. I expected I would see it in about 2 more months. I will post pics when I get a chance. Now to find a tire.

[SYKO]

[Yamahondaman]

i have a tire for you and i wished somebody on here could afford like 10 of those rims ... in time they will sell ... i was wondering if they could be modified to fit the TRI-Z ?

Thanks Ronnie. :Bounce This was a custom order. I would think they could do a different bolt pattern. They sent me a spec sheet I had to sign and return.

I dont have much going on this weekend, need to go to the sand drags and watch you git it rag!!

[Yamahondaman]

Ya but them DANG Banshee's are FAST !!!

[Mr. Clean]

Because I know how much everyone loves PICS. :pics: :pics:

[oldsking86]

Looks freaking sweet mike! Now you can get a nice front tire for the flat tracking

[Derrick Adams]

Ronnie, you can swap to the Honda 250R front hub on your bike and throw one of those 10" wheels on there. Plus the Honda hub is lighter!

They can't make the 10" front wheel in anything bigger than a 4x170. It barely works and you have to do minor trimming to the Hub at that.

[firefirefire90]

hmm...my ten inchers look nothing like that? :confused:

[Yamahondaman]

Plus the Honda hub is lighter!
.
NO WONDER THERE FASTER !!! :lol: ...
Yes ... i was thinking of that cause back in the day we used to run 12" grooved car tires on our "Z's" when Hill Climbing for height and weight to keep the front end down... one day we put a "Z" front hub and car tire on a ATC ... i WORKED !!
i have a spare ATC Hub and 11" rim ... i'll look into it ...

[viper]

i dont know how much cheaper it would be but jim hanes at jims sand toys in waynoka usually has some 10 in wheels for the atc 250r .................his number is 580-824-2021 tell him viper sent ya he will do you right

[Mr. Clean]

Well I finally got a chance to work on the hub for my douglas 10" rim. Just like Derrick Adams said you will have to do some grinding on the hub. Here is a couple pics. I have yet to get to the brake caliper.

You can see where around the wheel studs I had to grind down some of the hub. I kept grinding until it would go into the wheel. I also tapered the edge as the wheel lip had a taper as well. I tried to keep as much meat between the stud and the edge for strength.



I will also be getting new bearings from Dads.

:pics:

[BigGreenMachine]

Thank you! For both the great info and pics.

You too Derrick! Bumped your old thread.

[scrawny]

are all the numbers still valid for the 10" rims???

i want one for my WY street legal 350x! :D :D how bout turnin a hub down in the lathe?

[scottp597]

I just called Douglas and they said that they are having a hard time supplying their current model rims to dealers and are not taking any custom size orders =( I don't understand since I am paying them MONEY to do it.... ? :crazy:

The order number does show in their computer and they know what I'm talking about, I will try later in the week and hopefully get somewhere with someone else

[KASEY]

get a center offset wheel for a LT500 its only 2mm difference in hole patern,,, 4/166 vs 4/168.. pretty simple

[scottp597]

Kasey I thought the Rs are 4/170, this would work?

[KASEY]

yep my bad,,, its 4/ 168 and 4/ 170 i know its only 2mm difference cause i have one,, when my hub gets here i will post pictures..

[Dammit!]

I thought I read somewhere on dot org that ITP makes a ten inch rim that works with no mods?

[The Goat]

there should be one that even works with a washer or so as a spacer...

Try contacting Boubin Tire/ REAL WHEEL. They specialize in sprint car wheels but thats where I got the stuff to make my 10inch rim. They can also do beadlocks, which is unnecessary, but cool looking.

[370banshee]

yep my bad,,, its 4/ 168 and 4/ 170 i know its only 2mm difference cause i have one,, when my hub gets here i will post pictures..

LT500 front wheels are 4x166 and have a 8mm stud.. the R is 4x170 with a 10mm stud.. so there is a 4mm difference.. but your right too.. only 2mm off per hole..

[Mr. Clean]

Dune "R" 10 inch front rim installed.

[tundrawillie]

Mr Clean, I have a ton of front forks lying around. I can shave the front brake mounts and polish one for your duner if you like. Can also machine the front hub to eliminate the rotor mounts and any other excess weight.

Oh yea, what's with the clunker in the background??? :beer

You need some JL Audio for the trunk?

[harryredtrike]

that rim looks sweet,so does your chevy.

[factoryX]

ditto, both rides look awesome.
