Originally posted by Tony Smith Yes Derek, there are different sized rims. US 16" rims (and US made 9.00-16 tires) are 16" diameter at the bead and have a 5deg bead seat. Uk/Cdn WD 16" rims (and wartime Brit/Cdn tyres)are 16 1/4" dia at the bead and have a 0deg bead seat.
According to Mike Kelly's measurements, both makes of rims have an angled bead seat, it's just that American wheels have a smaller diameter.
