Re: Stock wheel size




Ok, this is the deal: I went out to the rim rack armeed with my tape measure 
and measured a stock '75-'81 non-s model aluminum wheel and from inside bead 
surface to inside bead surface the measurement is 5.5". I did not look on 
the wheel for #s. Maybe I'm measuring it wrong, but I don't think so. How 
about you Mr. Meze? Not trying to start any shit. Just am unsure.
