Dale, welcome to the Stovebolt site. As for the wheel concern, I ran modern metric radials on my 59 with the stock rims with no problem other than having to use a tube in one due to a very minor leak without it. Don't believe you will have any problems using the wheels you have unless you intentionally want to go with a wider one. Hold on and you're sure to get other opinions on your inquiry. Will add that you will be nagged to post pics of your truck so let me be the first. You may also want to post pics and your story in the Gallery. For future reference the forums do have a good search feature you may want to check out. Most times you will find an answer to your questions in a previous post then again sometimes you won't. Again, WELCOME ABOARD.
