Hi are you looking to mount it in forks ie wheel spindle though or a side hub like a Landrover? May a bike rear wheel may work .. Welcome

simples use a car front hub n disc/caliper from a rear wheel drive car and have a spindle machined to suit a pair of new same size bearings fitted in the car hub instead of the small outer and large inner bearings

Did for me. Never really thought about fitting a car tyre to a bike rim before but it makes sense when you think about it. Probably not agood idea on a raked out front though as you'd end up cornering on the sidewalls. I take it thats for the V8.
