RE: [Chrysler300] C-300 & B wheels

["Terry & Andree Hoeman" <tehoema@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Have to agree that it is reasonable that the 300 had sturdier wheels but master parts manual for 55-58 says they were the same darn it.

 

Believe 55 wheels had the alignment holes and 56 may not have though??  Most 55’s I have encountered have the alignment pin on some of the brakes but not all as I remember.  Using up old stock?

The Bolt diameter of 4 1/2 inches is not the only variable on the rims for your use. If all you want is to bolt up to your hubs, then OK. The 300 rim was a sturdier wheel, heavier gauge steel than the standard Saratoga and Windsor. They may also be slightly wider. The New Yorker had the same 5 x 4 1/2 inch 



bolt pattern, and may also be of a heavier gauge steel. The early Imperial's had the 5 x 5 1/2 inch bolt pattern. Good luck.

I'm looking to purchase up to five steel rims for a C-300 or 300B.  I believe the rims were the same.  Specs are 15" diameter with 4 1/2" bolt pattern diameter.  Prior to '55 I believe that Saratogas and Windsors also had a 4 1/2" bolt pattern, which would work.  NY's and Imp's I believe were 5 1/2" diameter, ruling them out.

 

Many thanks.

 

Chuck, C-300 & a B
