Wheel Simulators

[captain ron]

Will 22.5 X 8.25 hub piloted simulators work on my bus? I'm not sure if my bus is stud or hub piloted.

[Busted Knuckle]

Charlie if I remember right yours is stud pilot! Do you have the inner nut and outter nut set pu on the drives? Or is it just one nut holding both wheels on? By all rights your bus would have come from the factory with stud pilot wheels. But then again by all right your bus didn't come from the factory with an 8V92 DDEC and Atec trans either! LOL!    BK

can I make them work?

[JackConrad]

The stud holes in a hub piloted cover will be too small to fit over the stud piloted studs.  Well, I am about 90% sure this is correct LOL.  Best check the hole & stud diameters.  Jack

can I make them work?

Ya with a smoke wrench, cut off saw, sawzall, bailing wire & a welder anything is possible!   BK 













OK now seriously yup you probably could enlarge the holes and make 'em fit.
But is it gonna be easy to enlger the holes, is it gonna look right? Is it gonna cause the lugnuts to work loose? I can't honestly answer those questions! But yes the could be made to work. Question is "how much effort is it worth & will they be safe when done?"

Either I'm too cheap or my sniper program sucks cause I got outbid at the last minute. I bid 159.99 and they sold for 160 something. Now that the bus is all polished I desperately need them for the drive and tag.

I know the feeling it kinda sucks don't it.

I got out bid in the last sec by Kylie4104 just the other day myself.

Nope.

But I've been out bid by them too. . . .


(edit to add:)
BTW, If you get outbid by me, you must be looking for them to give it to you.

Maybe they used a sniping service also?  Hmmm, wonder what happens if both buyers use the same sniping service??  The service I use has a default setting to bid with 5 seconds to go. I can change this setting to a shorter time.  Jack

If the bidding is higher than your snipe bid at the time your bid is to be entered, it can't enter yours.
It sold for more than your snipe, so looks like you are cheap.      No wonder we get along . . .   

All snipe bidding does is minimize the effect of bidders who bid to be highest rather than bidding what it's worth to them.

I bid what it's worth to me & expect to be out bid. Nice surprise when I am high bidder.

Darn right I do! 

Don't always work out that way tho . . .

[Busted Knuckle]

Shoot Kyle's so cheap he asks for a tax deductable receipt on thing that are given to him! LOL!   BK 

By the way the most useful thing I find about a snipe program is it knocks out the "shill bididng" to run your bids up by the seller or friends! FWIW!
