Wonder if those would hold up to drag racing starts. I was looking at these for the '67:

I'm 87.6% sure he sported the Race Strength units...

Daaang, those are affordable. Too bad I can't find someone to trade their unpolished late 6" Fuchs five spokes... I'd get discs all around.

Hey, I can dream!

While a great deal and good parts, I wouldnt use them for racing.  The fact that you cant use press-in studs makes them illegal for NHRA if I remember correctly.  At that price your silly not to have them on a street car though!

I bet you could press some studs in there without too much trouble.

Buy them via vwparts.net. They will sell you anything from CB, even if not listed, and fair shipping prices. CB´s freight prices to europe are just silly.

CB says that they don't, but I beg to differ! I didn't measure mine before and after (wish I would have), but my guess is that pushed the wheel out about 3/8"

Fact of the matter is that CB doesn't have a clue.  I called them about added track width on my wide 5 discs......their reply was "They shouldn't add any width".  I KNOW THEY SHOLDN'T, BUT THEY DO!!!!!!!!!!  In my experiences with them, their tech support needs to fatten up on the tech portion of their support......cuz it sux.   Roll Eyes

I run mine with press in studs in the high 12's and on the street. I just had to spotface the backs like you would a set of drums you were pressing studs into.  I agree with Zach that they widen the track around 3/8ths of an inch. The tip of the IRS axle stub does not stick out of the center of a 6inch Fuch and it does on my other car with stock drums. Car stops VERY well with this setup.
