Hi John,

Welcome to this forum!

If I were you I would source six 20" wheels, as Fords were delivered with that size too and truck tyres in that size are plentiful. That way you can keep the 18" wheels, in case some 18" tyres turn up.

Here are some more pics of survivors of your type of truck: http://www.geocities.com/marmonherri...truck_cdn.html
