Title: Will a R65 snowflake wheel fit a R90/6?
Post by: scottyintex on April 07, 2013, 04:19:47 PM

I hit a pot hole the size a of Florida sinkhole avoiding being run over my a 18 wheeler. The light aluminum rim on my sidecar got bent..badly. Always did like the snowflake wheels. The sidecar wheel is a standard R90/6 back wheel. Sooooo, can I replace it with a snowflake???

Scotty

Sure glad you dodged that big bullet. How about a call to Perry for confirmation -yea or nay- on the snowflake idea.

Chair axle o.d. the same?

Yep, the sidecar wheel is a standard unmodified R90/6 rear wheel.
