1965 dodge W300 wheels on M715

[cvs1]

Does anyone know if the rims from a 1965 dodge W300 will fit a M715. The rims are 6 lugs and seem to be spaced the same ( 6 on 7.25). Also, could the offset be different. These could possibly be dually rims.

Well one way to find out is put the rims on the truck and see if they will work. I thought the M715 was 5 lug...been a long time since I've been up close and personal with one so my memory fails me.

It's 6 lug and should bolt up but they are dually rims.

Center cut-outs big enough?

Yeah, some of the old Dodges used the same pattern as ours, same center hole too. Not sure if it was limited to duallys. I even recall seeing a CJ5 backhoe with a dually Dana 70 rear end with our pattern.

To All, thanks for responding! Yes, center hole is the same size. I got a set dirt cheap and I will pick them up Friday. Seller said bolt pattern is the same but offset is different. also, not sure if the split ring is the same. I could not tell by the picture. Anyway, I will soon know.

I have used them before, I think I even have a photo of one on a 715 we pulled out of the Missouri woods. I will see if I can find it.

My truck had a set of those duals on it when I got it. Boy was that ugly.

Hope they aren't to bad looking. I plan on running them single and using them as a second set with a street tire, then swap them out when I go looking for GOLD! Ha Ha, like there is any left.

With the offset they had I think you would have trouble running them as singles. They would be set in too far in the back and I don't think they would even work on the front. That is unless you are going to turn them around and have them stick out. The stock wheels are much better than the Dodge wheels. The lock ring on the stockers is a safer design. Unless you are going to run them as duals for some reason I would avoid them. Mine required a custom spacer to run them as duals also.
