Hello:
I recently bought a 1949 Ford F1 6 cylinder 3 speed (floor) in black
from the original owner's kids. No mods. All original.
Had not run since the 70's. I bought it for my best friend who is sick with cancer. He used to have one he drove in high school.
I have it running great.
I am in need of one rim for a spare tire.
It is a 16 inch 5 lug rim.
I am in Ohio. Please contact me if you have one or know of one for sale.
Many, many thanks!!
-Kevin

 

I have two 16" 5x5.5 stock rims. However, I don't know the width just yet as the tires are still one. 16" rims came in three widths, 4", 4.5" and 5". 4.5" was the stock width, I believe. 4" was the earlier width and 5" was later.

 

What size tires are on there?
I have 750s on which r little big
I think if they're 650-750
They would work 4 me

 

Stock size was 6.00 but I think 6.50 was optional. I'll check the size tomorrow and let you know.

 

If things don't work out with PanelMan, let me know. I have a 16X4 original wheel sitting in the garage. Looks good, holes are OK. I have been running 6.00X16 bias plys - as far as I know, that was the size that came on my '50.
