Re: Rally Wheel Weirdness???

You have made a good point Cebra, but I am 99% sure it's an 8" wheel. It still has a tire on it, so I have had to back into the wheel width by measuring the overall tire width and subtracting measurements taken from the outer tire sidewalls back to the rim.

Maybe my research is off...I just found this...

It says the 8" wheels had a 4-1/4" BS. It seems most posters just say 4" BS for the 8 inchers.

JCF - I though that at first too. BS is measured from the extreme edge, but the wheel width is measured from the insides of the bead lips....

Here is a good short read on wheel measurements...
