Re: (ET) I5 - Rear Rims



Burt in minn has a set of tires and rims for sale Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4GLTE smartphone. >From : Robert Troll Subject : (ET) I5 - Rear Rims Slowly working on my I5 restoration. Mine currently has a standard garden tractor tire rim on it, but i would like to find the original industrial rims. I was at the local tire shop today buying tires for my car and mentioned the rims were supposed to be a standard car tire rim of the day. The owner told me that if i could find out what kind of car the rim was made for then he could probably get me a set. Does anyone have any idea which car the industrial rims may have fit? Chevy Vega's and Ford Pintos used the same tire size but had a 4 bolt rim.
