Has anyone out there done the Stockton Wheel "Thingie" of cutting the centers out of the "Split" rims and having Stockton Wheel weld them into a new "Radial Ready" 1 piece solid rim? I have 2 of them at their shop now, waiting for further info. If any one has gone this route, Did you make them into a 16" X 6 Rim? My ultimate goal is to run a tire as close in diameter as the original 7.50x17 inch tires. If anyone has gone this route, What size rims did you weld into, and what size tires did you mount on those new rims? My thoughts are to mount onto a 16x6 rim a 215x85R 16 tire or on a 16x6.5 rim a 2.35x85R16 tire.I need to keep in mind the 3.75 inch back spacing and also the fact that there is about 3/4 inch space between the existing rim/tire and edge of the tie rod. Any help GREATLY appreciated, Pickup soon ready to roll and NO decent "Tennis Shoes" LOL
PS I promise to post picture soon. Thanks, Jerrey
