Correct Rims on '51 Chevrolet??
Can anybody please tell me if the rims on this truck are correct to the year 1951 for the Chevrolet 3100 Pickup truck? Is there a resource for determining the factory rims? Thanks!

Re: Correct Rims on '51 Chevrolet??
Are you measuring across the outside of the rim?? If so the "size" is a little less than that measured at the tire bead. You might have 16" size wheels which would measure around 17 actual.
