Re: Tyre and wheel question

Re: Tyre and wheel question

Remember to check the off set. some Suzuki rims cam foul. You can also use 16" rims the PCD is 5.5" or 139.5mm (140) the centre hole has to be around 4". I had to grind out the centre hole to get them to fit.

Springs and fixing them

At the recent Wigtail meet I was asked about having spring repaired and remade. I used the firm below to remodel a set of UAZ 469 rear spring so they could be used on my GAZ67b.

Re: Wheels type ? (GAZ69)
