Re: 16" Ford wheels
Dunlop Grandtrek 215/70R16 radials. I run them as tubeless. This size was originally used on the RAV4.

Re: 16" Ford wheels
if someone was going to order stock of the rack 16" black steel rim to fit a 1930 Model
A what would the bolt pattern measurements be and off-set if that apply's. What size tires are guys running to get close to stock diam. Also can we run a low cost radial or should we use bias plys ?

Re: 16" Ford wheels
Ford wheels from the 40's (and Merc) fit, 5x 5 1/2 is the bolt pattern I believe. Some later Ford p/up wheels also fit. Your choice either bias or radial, most run tubeless.
600x16, 650x16, radials a lot of fellows run P215-70R16's. Paul in CT |
