Anyone have a list of what trucks (or vans, RV's) came with the 8 on 6.5" bolt pattern 19.5" diameter rims? I'm missing one and they seem hard to find... I want to say they're from about '55-'59 Chev / GMC trucks (not sure of models, and years are a guesstimate) Maybe they came on some of the Grumman bread vans? (Though all i've seen on them is 19.5 DRW, and most in 10 lug)
Below is an edit from the 1955-60 GMC Master parts book showing the applications for 8 stud 19.5" diameter wheels.
The "year series" decode as X = 56, T = 57, S = 58/9 and N = 60.
Model 15 = 3/4 ton, 25 = 1 ton. Add in the P makes it a delivery van and PM is a delivery van with Hydra-Matic transmission.
The rear being a "D" indicates a "dually" with a total of 4 wheels on the rear axle.
BUT (big but) some of these same models were also available with 16", 17" and 18" wheels.
