Talking Re: 9.5Rx16.5 tires...the price of authenticity

Thanks everybody. Discount tire guy did say that size was becoming obsolete. In another 10 years I may be looking for other rims. I was able to watch them and see how the spare was dealt with and where all the old grease is in the front that needs to be cleaned away from the zirk fittings. I have work to do cleaning more! Nothing looked cracked or broken though and it was good to see beyond the tires.
Yeah it looks just fine but really it's authentic and yes, now I can go farther from home. I just retired so now I have access to IRA money to begin some work on the truck. Wipers don't squirt, AC blows but not cold, upholstery needs to go back to original look. So I may be asking for help on some of this stuff. Thanks again for the helpful comments. For now I can drive it like I stole it! (But I don't). Hahaha
