Default Will ausco disc brakes fit this rim?

I want to buy an Ausco disc brake conversion kit but I'm not sure if they will fit this rim and they are not returnable because of fitment issues. I have 10" rims and they measure 9 1/2" inside. I cut a wood dowel 9 1/2" long and it drops into the rim but stops 1 1/2" from the outside face of the rim. I don't really want to buy spacers but I will if I have to. The specs say that the rim has to be 9 1/2" inside. Does anyone have any experience with this issue or a set that they could measure? Scotty B says it looks like they would fit but he's not positive. I'm trying to post a pic but the verdict is still out. Thanks for the help.[IMG]file:///C:/Users/hinge/Desktop/IMG_1446.JPG[/IMG]

I wont say they will (not) fit. I have attached photos of mine that required spacers. I have 10" wheels. My deal was i wanted them and would get spacers if needed. A huge improvement in braking

Thanks for the help EPB! Dang! It's hard to tell from the pics. Do you have any idea what your rims measure on the inside? Thanks again! Scott

The pics were before spacers and would not mount. I will measure tonight after work. In one pic u can see about a 1/2" in my rim gets smaller. This is why sellers say fit most 10" wheels. I'll get back to ya!

I think this is the link the the Ausco website...there is a phone # included. Perhaps it might be worth a call to customer service to see if they can answer your question...

Hope this helps...!!!

Thanks so much for your time and help! I see what you mean how your rim has a step down to it. I'm thinking the kit should work on my rims but I'd sure like to verify that before buying and shipping them all the way to so. California. Scott

Da! Why didn't I think of that. I sent an email to Ausco and will call as well if I can catch them before they go home today. I was surprised to see that they make brakes and clutches for the heavy equiptment industry. I looks like a good company! Thanks for the link. Scott
