I've just acquired some vintage willys rims for my cj3a they are only 4.5 inch wide by 15. I was thinking these tire are to wide for a 4-1/2 inch rim I was thinking 7.00-15 tires might do better. My willy's is close to the same color, and trying to decide what color I wanted the rims to be. I thought Khaki had the best look with the darker green.
@@fastdadgarage-northsouthch4418 What size are your Kelsey Hayes rims as far as width and the width size of your tire. The narrowest tire I can find for my 4.5 inch rimes are 7.00-15 and recommended to have a 5.5 inch rims but I think they'll work fine, what do you think?
Fast Dad Garage - North & South Chamberlain’s - just seen the reports of flooding in Michigan. I guess it’s a huge State but I hope you guys are not directly affected!
VOD800 - Thanks for the concern! I’m on the far west of the upper Peninsula, my brother is south west. The flooding was pretty much between us. Hope all the affected are safe.
@@fastdadgarage-northsouthch4418 I am using a 57 CJ5 frame for my 54 3B body, went for the longer springs options hoping for a little more stability. I used Rough Country for the kit.
fuxluck1 i don’t have a color name, check out video #12 in the series it explains a little. Basically it’s rustoleum emerald green, light green that was mixed wrong at store and black.
Wow! Now she’s looking, (and hopefully performing) like a JEEP!!
New tires are always a great thing.
Love the classic but tough looking tires. I hate the “oversized” look a lot of guys are doing. You’re doing it right in my book! 👍🏻
The tires really add to “the look”. Good choice. Tony
Much, much better. Looking good!
wow those new tires look great !
Best size tyre for cj3b❤️
Wish I could find some 16’s for my 48
Anytime I see a set at a responsible price I buy them. Ive done my last 3 Jeeps with 16” always happy with the result.
Wowww.. I can't say anything. Waiting for some driving impressions..
Ficou joia! É outro jeep! Very good!
Das is good.

Contrasting rim colors are great. I just went the same for this Jeep because I had extra paint.

These tires are 225/75r16 the rims are 4.5-5 inch I can’t remember for sure. The beads locked on and I haven’t had any trouble.
Beautiful! Nice to see "normal" size tires as well :-) One question - no spare? Looks like no provisions for a spare tire either...
VOD800 I have a spare rim already painted. I’m not sure if I’ll use one of these directional tires or go with a “any position tire” instead.
@@fastdadgarage-northsouthch4418 - just my point of view but, matching tires all the way! Even if there's a 50% chance of getting it wrong :-)
Very true! I’ll order another

Hi, been looking at this type of tire for my 3B, is your 3B stock height or raised? I am at 2.5 lift right now. Thanks, B
Brett Dixon - It is stock currently. You could probably run the bigger tires. What suspension kit are you using and how do you like it?

how wide are your rims?
I think this set of rims are 6”
What size tires are these? I can’t open the link. Thank you!
I put in another link, but it was for 15” rim. I couldn’t find my tires out of stock. The size was 225/75r16 on my jeep
I. Want. This. Jeep.
Tyre size 7.50 16?
225/75R16
What is the name of that color on the Jeep? I have a 56' Willys wagon colse to this color but the paint is beat.

@@fastdadgarage-northsouthch4418 Thank you. I think my wagon was repainted Buick Terrace Green. I was a color available in the early 50's.
