Rim width ?
What is the proper rim width on a 47 1/2 ton pickup? I have a guy needing a couple wheels and he has 4" and 4 1/2", . He wants the correct ones. thanks.

The same 8C 1015 wheel, 16" x 4.5", is correct for the earlier trucks having the 5 x 5.5" pattern. Stu

There were two catalogued, Ford 01A 1015 used on 40-46 trucks, and 11A 1015 used on 40-48 cars. Interesting, both cross refer back to the same wheel - K-H 22977. Stu
