Hey Guys--I sent the following post out a couple of days ago, but have
received very little response. I know some have done the 7/16" wheel lug
conversion, which means you have to have drilled out your wheels to fit the
larger lugs. Has no one used Rostyle wheels in doing this? Thanks!

For those who have converted to 7/16" lugs. There is a lister on the
Midget/Sprite Club exchange who has converted and has drilled out a Rostyle
wheel to fit the 7/16" lug. He sent me the following question:
"David
If you drill out the fixing hole in the Rostyle what do you do about
remaking the taper? Having drilled out the hole, the taper will not go to
the bottom of the hole. This means less bearing surface for the taper. It
is the taper that takes all the force."
Can anyone answer this? I have not done this conversion, but I am planning
it. I would like to know the answer as well. Thanks!
