G'day Tony,

Who did the tyre for you Tony? Was it a tyre place or the bloke whom you bought the truck off? Plus how did they achieve this feat of dexterity?

What are the rims called when they are in two halves and held together by the special bolts?

Would there be a Chevrolet equivalent iof the bolt together wheel rim instead of the suicide ring rims like my truck has?

Kind Regards
Lionel

Australian Chev MCP trucks had the type of rims you are seeking, Lionel, but they were an 18" rim, which would open up a whole 'nother can of worms for you trying to find 10.50-18 tyres...
