Fronts, rears, spacers....... Que?

[caduceus]

With regard to 18" spiders on a Cerb, do the majority of you use 4 Tuscan fronts? And if so, do you buy 9mm spacers for the rear, cut some off the end of the drive shaft, or modify the centre caps?

Thanks

My cerb had 4 tuscan fronts, with the rear axle trimmed either side so the caps fit.

my cerb came with 4 spiders, tyres are wider on the back than the front, but how do i tell if i have wider rears? or all 4 wheels the same width but wider fitted tyres on rear? are the spokes more dished? centre caps fit fine.

im don't know if previous keeper shaved shafts or axle though

Is that it then? Chop off the ends with a hack saw?

I was under the impression that 4 rears were needed???

Would be easier, but I don't want things getting too hot so close to the bearings. I suppose if I really took some time over it, yes. But I think I'll try with a saw first.

Esso - No mate. Its normally 4 fronts, or two fronts two rears. As the proper rears sometimes rub on the rear arches.
