Hi all, I'm wondering if the 15" 6 lug wheels will interchange with any other wheels, ie chevy or ford. My wheels are rusty maybe I could just have them re-cromed, any suggestions??
Thanks!!!

Sandblast and powdercoat. About 100 to 150$ for all four wheels. New hubcaps about 10$ each.

Mine were the Wester Wheel Mags and Matched Chevy's 6 bolt. I ended up getting new mags and still have the originals but they are pretty pitted.

Robin,

I checked the wheel size on my 1972 26' "Silver Streak", the spare bolted up to an early, 1970-1979 Chevy 6 Lug Pick Up axle. The 15" Chev. 6 lug is quite common, so replacement should be easy, unless your are trying to keep the trailers appearance "Original".

Regards,
