‘68 Wheel Question

Bottoms out? Shimmies? Shackles, springs, shocks, steering linkage etc. The old messages from the NPCA 'Suspension' category are here.

‘68 Wheel Question

Post by Slackd »

Ok, I’m back with more Qs on my ‘68 sold as a ‘69. Just trying to confirm that I have split rims, and if yes, do I have tubes installed in my current Cooper tires. I do not have a tire/wheel issue now, but I will sometime down the road and want to know how to resolve.

Looking closely at the valve stem, it looks like a typical tubeless install, but what do I know (not much). The current steel wheels are 16”. I do not know if they are original to this Patrol but they might be.

Thanks all.
Dave

They don't look like split rims to me.
