[Spridgets] Tire / Wheel Combination / Question

[Dean Hedin]

As I recall, Mr. Danielson from NE had those wheels on his spridget.
Maybe he can chime in.

I think the Khumo powerstar 758 in 175/70-13 is a good choice for 5 inch wide rims.
However, I always thought the AR Libre wheel was 5.5 inches wide.
