Hi George,
I'm surprised the spacers only add 1/4".
I believe the steel wheel studs on a TR250/TR6 are 5/8" longer than the wire
wheel studs. Is there a
smaller difference in length between the steel wheel and wire wheel studs on
the TR3A vs the
TR250/TR6 or can the spacer be less than the full 5/8" difference in stud
length?
