Not a preferred fitment, you would need a very thick spacer and would have king pin offset problems. The Wires are best fitted to 40-48 type drums, and even then there is one type that fits better and a small spacer ring is needed around the hole in the center of the wheel.
If you can use steels they will bolt right up to the f1 drums.
