mike m., I have not received shipment of my new/old '53 B-4-PW yet. But when it arrives from CA in early June, I am supposed to be receiving with it an extra set of four 15 inch rims which have had PW buds welded into the centers. Although I do not have the actual measured rim size, I know that they are a wide rim since they are coming with a set of 35 X 14.5 X 15 tires. I cannot possibly see what I would want with these, but they came with the truck. My thought was that they may be useful to someone who might want to mount a set of paddle-tires to use a PW in the sand. I never thought of the idea of using the rims with a short tire to reduce height clearance. I have not seen these rims. I have no idea of the quality of the welding and if they are true or not. There are probably better ways to approach your problem, but if you might be interested in the rims, feel free to contact me by email. Bruce Metzger, Woodland Park, CO
