OK. I am ready for my chewing out! In previous posts we had discussed my tire/wheel problem. On the 59 GMC 370 LCF with 8.25x20 tires. With the RH 5* wheels.
Not knowing anything about what kind of wheels I had, last year I bought a heck of a deal in 6 like new, 8.25x20 tires, tubes & liners. Then I did not have the funds to buy different wheels & tires. So the tires have been sitting in my shop 5 months.
Now to the story:
My shop is out in the country, A guy was passing by and stopped to look at the GMC. He looked over in the corner and spotted the new tires. He said " You want them thar tars mounted?" I told him the story about the wheels and he said "I done them all my life, I will change them for you, $20 each if you jack up the truck." I said well, don't want you to get hurt, but go for it. He went and got his tire tools and had all 6 mounted on a Saturday morning. I painted the wheels white and they look great on the truck!
I guess just be careful when you walk past the outer rears. The other 4 cannot go anywhere if they blow....
BTW, the wheels had 59 stamped on them and still had some paint inside.
