16" 8 bolt Split Rims for 1.5 ton Australian Chevrolet Trucks

[David Herbert]

Philippe,
You may not know this but ALL these British style MOD split rim 16" wheels, whether British, Canadian or Australian (though I think they were made in Canada?) have exactly the same dimensions and are fully interchangeable between vehicles regardless of tire size. The same with the 20" ones except that there were two styles of them - 8 stud dished centre ( used on 3 ton trucks) and 10 stud flat centre (used on Scammells and Matadors etc)

The British ones have BSW threaded studs vs the American threads on the Canadian ones and for some strange reason the valve cut out is in a slightly different position which prevents mixing front and back halves but as assemblies they are the same.

The only exception to this that I know of is the six stud version used on Dodge D212 and Chevy Heavy Utilities. I believe but am not certain that these used the same pressings as the 8 stud ones. Could someone confirm or correct that please.

David
