When tubeless tires first came out in late '50's, they made 22.5 tubeless wheels with this pattern, they will hold up to 9 x 22.5" tires. Hard to find, found on farm trucks, among others, of the era.
Tubeless tires are worth considering because many tire shops will not or cannot deal with them.
Nice truck, do you know any history?
