Bantam Wheel/Tire Swap

Post by Mtnhdwr » Wed Oct 04, 2017 7:31 am

Just picked up a '47 bantam on the cheap. Pretty solid trailer, pulled it 70 miles home and everything seams good. The only
mods I plan for now are wheels and tires. I plan to restore to original but I would like the option of new wheels and tires to swap
out for trail use. I would like to have a wider All terain wheel and tire combo for trails and beach use. Can anybody recommend a modern 4 spoke wheel and tire combo to fit the original hub/axl combo? I am not sure of the bolt spacing and hub bore.

Most CJ-5/7 and Ford Pickup Wheels will work its 5 on 5 1/2" bolt pattern so your only limited to your imagination.
