I have a set of four, six bolt artillery wheels. I am uncertain they are GM. They measure 18 and 3/4 inches in diameter; measured outside rim edge to rim edge. The width is 4 and 7/8 inches. The hub hole measures 3 and 5/8 inches in diameter. Are these what is referred to in the master catalog as "18 x 4.00" wheels? What size tire would these need?
Thanks, 37Blue

I HAVE A SET OF 18"X4" CHEVY 6 LUG WHEELS AND THEY MEASURE 19-3/4"ON THE O.D. MEASURE YOUR RIM FROM BEAD OF THE TIRE MEETS THE RIM. LOOKS LIKE YOU MIGHT HAVE A 17".

Thank you for the reply, sorry I hadn't seen it sooner. I'll check the measurements.

Also remember to measure the width where the bead seats, not overall width of the rim.
