Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Rims





I picked up a set of salvage yard take offs from an older Ford Crown Vic.  15x6.5W.  The standard 215/70R15 are a little tall in the front for my 80 Spirit but they got me through a season.  I'm still looking for something a little flashier but have just been to busy to have much of a chance!

If you search yahoo or google etc. you can find listings for wheel patterns by manufacturer and application.  I'll dig around in my achieves if you are interested.

Terry, The amc bolt pattern is the same as many other makes. Ford, Dodge, Mopar, I think even Nissan, toyota? It is 5 bolts on 4.5" center. or 5 on 4.5  The only issue you may run into is the hub hole size some fords are slightly smaller. I personally have never come across this.

Do any other manufacturers rims fit on the Gremlin. I was looking at my tires the other day and decided I am going to buy me a new set in the very near future. The tires that are on it have plenty of tread left but I know they are at least 16 years old maybe 20. I am just going with the same size that is on it. Thought about getting wider tires but I really don't see the need for them with that power house I have under the hood. My problem is my spare. It is a D78 Bias type tire. Could be one of the original tires on the car but it probably is one of the second set of tires that was on the car. I don't want to get rid of it. It is a conversation piece. While it holds air I don't know if I would really want to put it on the car and drive on it. Then again with four new tires I really shouldn't have to worry about a flat and in the slim chance I did since I never drive more than 30 miles from home I could take the back roads and never get over 30 MPH. I guess I am thinking out loud but would like to hear your thoughts. Thanks Terry
