The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot '60-'66 Trucks Were there any 15" steel wheels available on a '63 C20?

Or only 17.5, 19?

I do have a set of 15" split rims off s 62 8 stud

I believe 15s and 16s were in order. 15s standard. 16s optional. others available.

Would the '63 C20 be a 1963 C2504?

1963 wheels/tires C2504 - is that C20?

I stand corrected.

The 7 x 17.5 may have been the base tire listed on the sheet but not necessarily the tire that was most commonly used. there would have been a basic truck listed from the factory with no options and those would be the tires listed. when they came out and adv a new truck for sale at $1495.00. those would be the tires. dealers would order trucks with what tires and wheels they wanted and they would be an optional price. the old 7.50 x 16 was really the std tire used in those days

7.50 x 16?
or 7.00 x 15 (RPO 42, or 43, or 44)?

Good for you (and us), aerotruck63 - your collection of 1963 documentation is impressive.
