dermott, Your 15" rims should work without any problem. The slightly lower ride will not make that much of a difference. If memory serves ,I think Terraplanes used a 15" rim anyway. The big Hudsons used the 16" setup so I think you're going back to the origional setup.Anyway there won't be any noticeable difference. Seems to me Hudson stopped using 16" rims after the 1947 Commodore model year. Stepdowns were all 15" set ups.

thanks, i have 5 rims for $100.00. need to be cleaned and painted. what size radial would be recommended 205/75/r15 or ????? . why are w/w/wall tires so much ?, looking at $200.00 or so each tire 2.5 inch wide white. all tyres are white when made, so less black should be cheaper. lol, i am shopping around.

they need to fit with out rubbing, no skirts. but, i allways love a lady in skirts.

so i want to have some room for these in the future. i have seen pics of parks red utility coupe and the skirts look soooo nice. thanks, dermott.:cool:

Hudson Dave is right on the money. The folks at Diamondback Tire are really nice folks to deal with and they will stand behind their product. I've had mine for about 8 years and no problems at all.
