I would really like to run some 6.00X16 WWW tires on my '28 Roadster, but have the early (AR) brake drums. Only other rims besides the stock 28 rims that fit on it, are some old military Jeep steel wheels.

I want 16" wire wheels and have some. I may buy some spacers and machine them to fit on the AR brake drums. They would also help tires clear the rear shocks too.

I do prefer to have wire wheels on it, but I have other wheels with the 5X5.5 bolt pattern, that I would like to use to change it up, including a new set of Radir Wheels WWW cheater slicks.

WOO-HOO!
