Fergus,
The Grant adapter looks like it only works with Grant wheels.
The Momo adapter has the standard 6 screw setup most aftermarket wheels
come with. (Grant looks like it uses 5 screws)
If I get my car together and finished by Solvang, I'll try to make it.
Not sure if that's going to happen. There's still a small list of stuff
to do, but the car is 95% done. It's all the little jinky stuff that's
left that takes time...
