Original 15 x 5 Steel Wheel

Post by pentastar66 Tue Jan 07, 2014 9:25 am

Happy New Year to everyone. Does anyone have an original 15 x 5 x 4.5 lug pattern steel wheel and possible tire? I am in the process of putting back the spare tire mount in the back of my truck and would like to install an original spare.
Also if anyone gets "Classic Trucks" magazine, they just did an article on my A100.
Thanks!!!

my guess is you can find a cragar ss easier than a stock wheel, i found one on craigs list with a good tire for $30.

I still have all 5 of my steel wheels with dry rotted white walls...LOL. But I think mine are 14"? I even have the 4 hubcaps (one of them questionable). But I imagine shipping just one of them would be pricey.
