Post Single Lug wheels

What would I have to do to use single lug wheels? Not that important, but I think it might be cool.

What is a single lug wheel? The only thing I can think of that you would be talking about is spinner hubs(quick change)like used on wire wheels or on some racing cars like the ones on AC Cobras, if thats what your talking about I have never seen a hub or hub adaptor or wheels for the 944 series.

Yeah I'm talking about the ones used on race cars with one large nut to hold on the wheel.

Why didn't I think of that?!? WIRE WHEELS! and I can install a Lucas-style electrical harness while I'm at it! Back to the classic days of hacking about in a motor that sways and stutters with every moist breeze...

Naaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh.....

But talk about a beautiful work of art for our cars. Jim at Worldwide told me that they are available for both early and late offset cars, either with pin-drive or normal studs. He also told me that he has sold very few of them.

Those are the wheels from race cars they are Halibrand that were used by many race teams over the years the ones pictured are the ones for the AC Cobra and Ford GT40's and some Ferrari's, I don't recall those being "lowriders", well yes maybe they were "lowriders" in a way.
That's my type of lowrider.
