I need some help with tires.

When I got my truck, it had 3 newer 15" wheels without clips, and one 16" wheel with hub cap clips. I've found 3 matching 16" wheels. I haven't removed tires (7.5x16 tube type), but I think the rims are all 4.5" wide. Centres riveted to rim. Can you put tubless tires on these rims at all ?

I'm trying to find some tires. I'm a bit put off by the prices of fancy "classic tires". I'd be OK with blackwalls. I want to drive my truck (except in winter). Not a trailer queen (king).

I can't find anything that is recommended for 4.5" wheels.

So what are my options?
Find a tire that works. Anything in 'normal' tubless sizes ?
Any experience with tires on narow rims?

Get some newer, wider 15" rims?
I found a guy who has a set of 15x8 6 bolt rallys from a 70's 4x4. Will these fit?

Appreciate your recommendations.


When God gives any man wealth and possessions, and enables him to enjoy them, to accept his lot and be happy in his work�this is a gift of God. He seldom reflects on the days of his life, because God keeps him occupied with gladness of heart. Ecclesiastes 5:19-20
