Most solid wheels with the correct bolt pattern do not have a center hole large enough to fit over the raised ring present on Model A hubs without interference. Adapters used to be available to raise the rest of the hub/drum surface to that of the inner ring. Do these Chevy wheels have a large enough hole, or have you enlarged it?
