    I've done a quick search to try to find anyone that does a bare smoothie 15" x 5" with a single 5 x 41/2" stud pattern.

    I don't want multi lug as I'm not running centre caps.

    Also someone has mentioned some covers that are pressed out to cover the unused holes in multi lug.

    Any help please as to who does them. I'm over the pond in the UK so a web based supplier would be best.

    smoothies won't be available with a single 5-4.5 bolt pattern, they will all be dual pattern.
     
  9. You may have to go with a "Gennie" style wheel. I believe that they are available "smooth"- that is, without the vents in the center section. I think you can get these in a 4.5" bolt spacing.

    Otherwise, what some people do is install chrome bullets in the alternating holes on the dual pattern smoothies- looks pretty cool- I may have a pic somewhere...

    I have wheels and covers.... smooth wheels will be double bolt pattern.. You can run the covers though... I have a guy named Kerry Tate in the UK that buys wheels from me and ships them in a container.. He is a member of Originals C.C. He might have what you need.. Jason.

    thanks for the replies guys. Looks like I can't get the bare smoothies in single stud pattern, I can get multi stud wheels here in the UK, but as I said I want to run without caps.

    I'll try wheelkid and see if he can sort some covers for me.

    Thanks guys
