I don't know if they will bolt up, but I suggest that you measure across as
well. They may be too narrow to fit a decent tire. They also may not be able
to hold air with tubeless tires although if they are solid rims, that
shouldn't be a problem.

Hello:

	I am interested in finding 15 inch rims for my '49 Chevy 1/2 ton
pickup.  It currently has 6-lug, 16- inch wheels, and I like the look of the
smaller wheels and tires.  Someone has offered rims he says came off of a
'41 Chevy passenger car.  They have the 6-lug Chevy pattern, but my question
is whether the center hole of the wheel will fit my truck.  I've measured my
current rims, and the diameter of the opening is 3 1/2 inches.  Are they
interchangeable?  Thanks for your help.		David
