Making fair progress on my ’55 Savoy. This week I am
sandblasting and painting wheel rims and will be mounting new tires on Friday.
I have a question about the interchangeability
of other make/model wheel rims. I have 10” brake drums and the wheel rims
are 15” x 4.5” (measuring bead to bead not outside width). However,
the spare is a larger 15” x 5” rim. It has a deeper off set, but is
exactly the same with regards to mounting, lug, and locator holes. Is this the
correct wheel for the 11” brake set up?
I’m going to the salvage yard later
to see if I can find a smaller rim. Does anyone know what other make/models
will fit accurately? Maybe a70s Mopar something? I wouldn’t mind trading
rims if someone has a smaller rim and needs the larger. Shipping might be
prohibitive, but please let me know if you are interested.
Best,
David
