Hi Ron,
I assume you have seen the T wood to Model A adaptors? I have seen T hubs re-drilled for A wheel pattern but I think you will find the hub
diameter to be smaller than the A hubs & lacking support. Speedway motors sells a plate just for this because hot rod hubs run small for
wire wheels. Part # 91065470. Ideally A wheels are supported by the drums also. This will require using A hubs & drums with modified T
spindles. 1932 - 1935? had a 5 spoke hub & drum assembly that the drum could be cut off & would still support the A wheel.
