'58 5 1/2" wheels

[Mark Lovejoy]

I'm having problems trying to find information on the RPO 276 wheels, besides having trouble finding them!

What is the correct wheel color and what size tires are required.

I've managed to find the small "dogdish" hubcaps, if anyone has or knows where a decent set of 5 1/2" wheels are I'd be interested.

Thanks.

Mark, Good luck finding them. The color for your 58 will be silver. The wheels will measue 5 1/2 between the beads, will have no provision for full hubcaps, a larger valve stem hole, and a very unique offset between the spider and the rim. Once again good luck and by the way the cost will run between $2500 to $5000 for a set of 5. If you find more than you can use I personally need 3. Chuck Bergeww

I know they are hard to find, but I didn't know they would be so pricey. Thanks for the wheel color I thought they would be black. Can you tell me what size tire? The info I have doesn't address it. Thanks.

Mark, The tire size will be the same as the 5" wheel, 670x15.
