If you have drum brakes on both you are in the ball park.  If custom shims, spacers, or sprockets sound like a headache to you, yes, it could be a headache. One mans headache is another mans hobby.

Sorry, Steve----bad night!!! Should have said

Comstars are so different and to de honest 'orrible wheels if work is needed
