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

[David Herbert]

Remember guys that the six bolt 16" rim was used on 8cwt trucks that had 9.25 - 16 tires not 9.00 - 16 (although I am not so sure about Lynx I ). 9.25 - 16 are lower profile and rather lighter construction than WD 9.00 - 16. They have not been available for a very long time. I don't think that there were any British WD vehicles that used 9.25 - 16 on the heavy style split rims so it is quite possible that they didn't fit. The main British user were the Humber 4x4 range and they had their own much lighter design of split rim with five studs.
