Yup this is why when dealing with Old junk, you run what there or you replace it with stuff you can test fit before buying . . .
I drove my 53' Stude M275er on down to the truck yard asked if they had any 6lug 22.5's they said sure do, will they fit a 6lug 20 truck ? not sure lest find out they said . . .
they jacked up one the rear axles removed my 11.00-20's and set on 2 empty rims they fit, them they mounted 2 11R22.5's they slide on the axle fine but the side walls hits before the rims touched . . .
they removed the 22.5's reinstalled my 20's, i asked what i owed, they said nothing now we know and now you know . . . they said . . .
i tossed both gentlemen a 20 spot handed the yard owner a 10 spot and went on my marry way, seems cheaper in long run only cost me $50 bucks to find out if wheels fit or wouldn't fit . . .
what did it cost you ?
