Re: [Amc-list] 15" rims for Ambo wagon?

Shows cooper trendsetters as available, but who knows?
They also show the height as 27 inches.

This chart series seems to show the best matches as either a 205/75/15 or a 215/70/15.

For wheels you need a 5X4.5" pattern. Used will take ford or Mopar, just watch the wheel centers as some are to small and don't clear the AMC's center.
