15" switch to 14"
« on: June 29, 2009, 08:00:43 AM »
Howdy Gang,
I'd like to use a 14" wide five wheels and rims on our '58 single cab.
The rear wheel wells are uncut.
Will the 14" fit
thanks

Thanks good price but I'll have to pass on your offer
we got a '68 bus with the drivers seat belt mount rusted out and the owner just wanted it gone
some good parts and a lot of rust
