I have a 52 F-1 pickup truck that I'm restoring to look (sort of) like a survivor. The previous owner put wide tires and spoke wheels on it and it looks terrible. Anyway, he gave me the old rims and after taking the tires off of them, I found that only two matched, the other two were different widths. I either heard or read awhile back that the original 5 on 5.5 rims were used on Fords for many years and that they stayed with that pattern after going to tubeless. Here's my question: can I use newer (tubeless) rims and if so, what else fits. I'd obviously like to buy rims from a junkyard for a few $ each than have to go to aftermarkets for hundreds. Also, I'd rather not have tube tires.
Thanks
