Is 5 x 139.7 the same as a 5 x 5.5?

I have a set of 16" wheels Id like to put on my 83, they are 5 x 5.5 and I'd like to put the new tires on them.

 

Yep. 139.7mm = 5.5 inches.

Inch to mm Conversion Chart

 

Easier yet...

Enter into google:

139.7mm to in

 

Since I'm a High School Math teacher I guess I'll have to throw in the obvious teacher answer....

Don't use a chart, or google. Learn how to do the conversion

25.4 mm = 1 inch

Ya never know where it will come in handy. If you know this one you can figure just about anything else out on the calculator on your phone, yea I'll let you use that one... but I'd do it my head just to show you how smart I am

 

lol, I was actually trying to put it into Google, but once there, I mistyped something and ended up getting a bunch of search results instead of the answer. :P

Interesting, I'll remember that.

Calculator schmalculator, I do all my math by hand. :P Or at least I try to as much as possible.

 

I do my math with my toes and fingers. It was embarrassing in college.

 

amen brotha.. counting under the desk on the figures

 

Uh, I think this thread was hijacked!!!

Thanks guys.

I just saved a bunch of money!

 

Just for an FYI, these are the wheels Im going to use. They were on my 99 Ram, I got rid of the Ram and kept the wheels. I just have to find some Ford Center Caps and Im in business on the cheap!
