62 Rim/tire question
Hello,
I am assembling a 62 and replacing the tru-spoke wire wheels with original rims/hubcaps. However, I would like to keep the P23560R15 tires "or similar" (I like the wider tires). What size rim (OEM type) do I need to work with these tires? Would a mid-year type 6 inch rim work with these tires? Thanks!!!!! JP |
