Mounting HEMTT rims on 16-20's

[Andy1234]

Where can you find the o-rings? When bought fron the gov't, do the wheels come with the o-rings and valve stems or are they bare?

Thanks,

Andy

Budd Wheel is now Hayes Lemmerz. They make the wheels and should be able to supply the o-rings and other components.
However, any supplier of rubber products i.e. hose, belting, sheet, etc. can make the o-rings for you in any size you need and they'll probably be cheaper too.
The last set I had made for the HEMTT wheels worked out to about $5.00 per o-ring if I remember correctly.

The ones from GL came with the oring & the nuts that bolt the 2 sides together. All that is needed is the hemtt valve stems which many people here are selling.

If you are putting these on a 800 series 5 ton....you MUST put budcaps on ALL of the wheel studs before you put the rim on! If you dont, you will not have enough threads showing to get a good grip.



Here is what I mean......

dm22630, do you have pics of theses wheels with 16's mounted on a 5ton? I really want to see what these particular wheels look like mounted up. I have the wheels for my 818 but no tires yet.
