Defiantly cold...-40C!! Pulled the choke and started like a 2020 Ram....dove on the trailer and made the 6 hour journey home. The previews owner said he wouldn’t have been scared to drive it all the way!

You mean to tell me that splits are desirable? Around here, one is hard pressed to find a tire shop that will deal with them at all. I have a half dozen of them if anybody wants them.

It depends on who you're talking with. I put a set of split ring wheels on my '68 W200 with
American made STA Super Traxion Z-tread 7.50 x 16 tires / tubes / flaps. There's a family
owned [since the 40s] tire shop in my town and they still have a couple of guys that work
with these wheels.
