Expert Reply:
Hey Russel, you are going to need to replace your hub/drums since the 17.5 inch wheel and tire combos like the part # TA69VR require the 5/8 inch wheel studs and you currently have 1/2 inch. So what you need is the part # 8-285-10UC3-A that fits your spindle, has the correct bolt pattern, stud diameter , as well as hub bore diameter to perfectly match the # TA69VR.
The hub also comes with the correct wheel flange nuts as well.
