Everything is closed on weekend, but I will inquire about why I was told, gap specs.
On a different note, when I Googled, "split rims, lock rings" plenty of info and forum threads came up on discussions about lock rings flying off suddenly.

Just upgrade to 16 inch one piece tubeless rims. Lots of sources for ones that look factory. Splits are fine , But will look like crap as rust starts to weep from the joints. I have switched out splits on my 66 W100 to tubeless rims . And have previously done a 71 Fargo W200 and a 76 W200.
GM Rims will also work with just a little removed from center hole for hub clearance. My 66 in Avatar pic has the GM truck rims on it. Dodge caps and beauty rims fit right on.
My truck is younger than me.

Seperate Q.
Michelin 9.00 R 16 XZL tires. The "R" means radials. Clearly the pic shows a split ring. Is this a tubless tire installed on a rim made for tube tire?

Radial tires have be mounted on split rims. Rim protector flap and Tube required. Now as to whether it may be safe or not.
That's up for discussion.
