Trigo’s adapters enable you to install wheels with real knockoffs on your Cobra project without any machine work or welding. These adapters bolt onto 4.50", 4.75" or 5.50" bolt-pattern hubs by using the company’s unique pin nuts. They are available in either black oxide or gold iridite finish. Also, for street rod projects, Trigo Wheels has introduced a new 5 x 5.50" hub adapter for use on early Fords: 1935 and 1937-1948 model years. The hub adapters convert a 5-lug hub to enable the use of true knockoff wheels without any machine work or welding. The new adapter is available in a gold iridite finish and intended for use with Trigo’s traditional kidney bean wheels or any knockoff wheel drilled with a 5x5.50" bolt pattern.
