Title: 1957 Road Rocket wheel alignment
Post by: Alan Dornan on 25 Oct, 2020, 18:08
Hello, I am restoring a 1957 Road Rocket. My question is, with the Ariel hubs, should there be an offset on either wheels please? I have read differing articles so I am unsure of the actual answer. Is there an expert out there that has this knowledge. Thank you.

Hello Julian,

Thank you for the reply. Could you just help me understand that information a little bit please? I don't quite understand, sorry.
