@north1941 Wheels designed for trailer use, usually have a larger center hole than a stock Chevy wheel. I believe this is also the case with wheels designed for use on Toyota trucks with the same pattern. You might want to consider a 16" wheel to get a slightly larger diameter tire for a bit more speed. Keep in mind that a modern wheel will not have any means for using stock style hubcaps.

I have lots of 16" Chevy wheels. They are the narrow ones for a 6.00 or 6.50 tire. I would be glad to give you a set if you would pay shipping or can figure a way to get them.

Hi there

Unfortunately I don't think so.

The offset is listed as 3.65 positive, whereas the original 1941-42 rim was 3/8 inch positive.

I have the original rims on my '46 3/4 ton.

They are listed as having 1/2 inch positive offset, and I just went out and looked and I've only got 1/4 inch clearance to the tie rod ends.

Thus, the rims you link to would have several inches of interference with the tie rod ends.

You will need to find something with no more than 1/2 inch positive offset.

I'm attaching a screen shot of rim information from the 1929-54 master parts book for your reference.

Hope that helps and good luck in your search!  🙂

By the way, that page can be found online here:

PS

By my reckoning, Mike's generous offer is your best bet.

The page above suggests they will be wheels with 1/2 inch offset.

@ole-olson Ole, Your '46 has 8 bolt wheels, right? I wonder if the wheel mounting surface dimension is the same for the two trucks.

I believe the artillery wheels that appear in his photos are correct for his truck. 

Back set or offset dimensions are from center, I believe.

Yes, I have 8 bolts as opposed to 6 in 1941.

The offset appears to be the same though as multiple parts books I have show my 1946 rim offset as 1/2", while the 1941's were 3/8".

It looks like Chev used about a 1/2' offset on most commercials up to at least 1954.
