Help! What 15" wheels will fit a 1936 Terraplane? The center hold for the hub on Fords is smaller.

I would like to put modern tires on my 1936 Terraplane. Fords almost fit. Cokers are right now too expensive...so 14" or 15" modern tires would be great. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    You may be cutting a support flange out weakening the steel hub of the wheel ?

    Doubt if the steering box will handle the extra width..you'll definitely need power steering at walking speed. Would love to hear about the handling if you proceed please. These 2 questions usually pop up when people decide to change the specifications...This year I'm going to put on new whitewalls in my 36T and I'm just interested in your process cheers ken

    Step-down and Jet wheels will fit.
