Good  Web site Re:  Chrysler wire wheels.

About 4 or 5 years ago,  John Characky's son found  "Roadster Wheels" at a swap meet in CA.
John and I had been investigating wire wheels for the  "F"  and  "G". 
Roadster Wheels would make them any size we wanted.

We ordered  15 wheels........   15"  X   7"  wide,  Stainless spokes and Nipples
plus the two bar center caps  ( made in CA )

I used  Diamond Back tires....   235 X 15    R75,   2  1/2"  White walls  For my  300G.
Clearance is good front and back.  ( Let some air out to install rear tires and wheels )

I have used the wheel / tire combo for three years.    Look good, and drive great.

Great to be retired.

  Hi Group

  The wife is "encouraging" me to add a set of wire wheels to our 300C. I had Dayton "bolt-thru" wire wheels on a 300C convert in the eighties and was very happy with them. I'm considering Dayton wheels again but would like some input as to whether there is another brand I should consider. I'm after a look that is close to original but I'm going to a 15 X 7 size. I do have a set of original 1956 wire wheels but am not really interested in having them rebuilt.

  Thanks and Happy Holidays to All !!!

  Jeff Miklas
