More Tire Questions

Post by BrowneBlue »

I am trying to get what should be original on my '67 D200. I have been offered a set of nearly new 16X7.50's that are currently on Wagon Wheels and also mounted on a 1966 Ford 3/4. Is it possible that these wheels will just fit on my Dodge? If I were to get these and want to change to stock wheels what would I be looking for? Possibly 16X6.00? Thanks,Scott

Scott,
The studs are a match but you should measure the
conter hole diameter just to make sure.... they
SHOULD fit.

wagon wheels are after market, so they will bolt on. but, the stock off the shelf back space with a 7.5x16 tire will slightly rub your tie rod. i got one sitting in my shed to proove it. so check the back space after you bolt them up. look wherte the tie rod hits the spindle to be sure your not touching. lay undr it and have someone turn the wheel lock to lock. make sure it clears all the way and wont hit the steering arm in a hard left. mine neevr come close to the stering arm, but it sure dug a groove with the tie rod. :Thumbsup

Good points. I know what you mean. I already have this issue with the 9.50 that are on there now. Way too wide for me and my truck!!
