Default Re: 15" Rims

I have ‘72 F100 wheels on my ‘51F1. They are same bolt pattern as ‘40 through ‘48 cars n up to,’50 Mercs.
Took me a while to find hub caps but I did some work for a guy that for some reason had 6 of them.
He gave them all to me.
I like 15” tires, I hate tubes.

For used stock wheels try craigslist or offer up. If you want a special width try Collins wheel in Bellflower, Ca.

I purchased my 15" wheels from Wheelsmith in CA. They build vintage styles to accept stock caps. You can buy them unpainted to help keep the cost down. They are good people.

Hi; Just for info, the Jeep wheels are either civilian or military. The military are heavier steel and had a 1/16th " hole drilled by bolt circle for ID. More valuable too. Newc
