Yosephine is still awaiting a motor overhaul, and in the mean time I've added a spare wheel holder to her. The spare wheel holder is originally intended for 8" wheels, so the studs will have to be lengthened to cope with a 10" wheel. Otherwise the part has just been primed and painted with two component paint.

I have a VBB which has been converted to 10" wheels. I've wanted to connect a 10" spare just as you have but have been worried that the carrier that connects to the frame only supports the 8" wheel. Are you certain that the distance between the plugs would work with the 10" wheel without modification?
ReplyDeleteLove the pics! Thanks!
My same thought exactly, check newer post where you can see thread extenders installed on one of the pictures.
ReplyDeleteThis was not necessary though. Dry mount on your VBB, add thread extenders if necessary.
