I eventually must mount 13” rims on my 1940 pickup drums. To date I have not found any 13” rims with a 5x5.5 pattern, not even trailer rims. I have also not found any adapters that will work. If anyone knows of any please let me know. I was thinking about welding in a round plate in with the correct pattern but thought I’d ask if anyone had a better option. Drilling new stud holes in the drum can’t be fun.
