What is the correct size wheel for a 1953 3100?Do they need the clips to use the original hub caps THANKS

16" and yes on the clips.

Hi POPA,,, Im pretty sure the wheels were
4 1/2 x 16". And they had the little spring steel clips to hold the hubcap on.
And,,,by the way,,,did MarK tech ever make right with you on the ripply,holey bed wood that you bought from them?
Just wondering,as im getting ready to do the bed in my pickup.
Thanks,Marty

Marty, I did not contact them as it said on the box no returns after 15 days if I remember right, anyway I ran them thru a plainer 3 times then a drum sander 3 times then finished up with an air file. I put a qt of pelucid on as a sealer then blocked with 320. Then put 3 coats of Nason select automotive urethane and blocked with 500,then 3 more coats of clear.They are still a bit wavey but look and feel like glass
