Any one know of a source for the 8" ATV wheels with the welded brake disk tabs that came with Model IVs in the 1990's? Used OK

I don't think there is a source for the wheels prepared for the matco brakes. They were standard 8 x 6 Douglas ATV wheels with 3 aluminum blocks welded on and machined to accept the brake disc. Unless you find someone with a used set, you would need to do these modifications yourself or take the wheel to someone who can do the modification.

Thank you, JB. I am hoping someone did or will do an upgrade and will want to sell their 8" wheels.
TailDragon, I sent you a PM

Thank you, Tom. Will let you know where the lead leads!
Murle came through, again!
Thanks, Murle.
I too am on the lookout for a prepped set of 8" wheels. Any others out there?
