TriGlide rear wheels

American Racing also has another option. Basically they cut the wheel to your specs.

Today I came across one of the Cragar spoke wheels with 4/4.25 lugs. They have only 4 heavy spokes, but they were in 13". Tire guy is trying to find a set in 15".

I don't think Cragar ever offered that wheel in anything other than a 13" size.

As most of you know,TriGlide rear wheels are a 15x5.5 size. I'm trying to figure out if a 6" wide wheel will fit. If so,that would really open up wheel selection for them and the Freewheeler. It would be much appreciated if someone could give me some measurements from the outer tire sidewall to the inside edge of the fender lip and from the inside tire sidewall to the inside of the fenderwell.
Putting your TG on a lift to get these measurements would be even better but I'll take what numbers I can get,right now.
Thanks again.

I will as soon as I can get to it Clint. ThumbUp ride safely fearless

0 offset = 3.5" backspace. -6mm offset = 3.25". -12mm offset = 3.0. A 15x6 wheel with any offset between those numbers will fit.

Someone wanted a spoke wheel for the Trike. Fat Daddy has a set that are sealed for tubeless. But a bit spendy.

Hi all

i know this is an old thread but I hope I can get an answer.

what size wheels can be used if we remove the fenders?

thanks.

Really any size that will fit bolt pattern and clear the back spacing, just remember if you go higher in the tire diameter you are changing the gearing ratio, less power more speed. Of course if you smaller it does the same increase power lower speed. You know how that works, if not check a tire chart. Do an advanced search in the top right corner of the page it will bring up several threads addressing wheel and tire changes. Good luck on your search. Fred
