<VV> BMW rims (5/120mm) on a Corvair

[N. Joseph Potts]

Just bolt 'em down. I've done it with my 66, and it worked. I never took
them very far, though. Obviously, it isn't elegant, and I CAN'T tell you
that it's proven over the long haul/term. But I observed no untoward
effects.

I have a chance to get some rims from a beemer, and figure they'll
look sharp on my Vair.  These are 5/120mm bolt pattern, which works
out to 5/4.72 inches.  The Corvair needs pattern is 5/4.75 ...  Can I
make this work?  If so, exactly how?
