[A/S] Re: New Tires and Wheels
Hi Lauren
I think you will find that Mitch is right and that 225/75R x 16"
tires will not fit in your wheel wells. It is a switch that I have
done a few times on newer units with larger wheel wells and it works
fine but no better than the 7.00 x 15".
New 7.00 x 15" radial tires are available, both Bridgestone and
Yokohama have them for sure. Do not install Bias Ply tires. The
rims from a new Airstream will fit as well as many other 6 bolt
pattern rims. Those new Alcoa wheels would look sharp.
I hope this helps you out and if your tire guy can't get you the
tires let me know and I will get you the product numbers.
