16" wheels

I recently saw a 1961 Lark description that said it had 16" wheels. Anybody know if this is possible?...Lou



Sure. Just use a smaller sidewall tire. I think it's called one off or something like that. The result is the same diameter as the original.

"plus one" - rule of thumb, go up one inch in wheel diameter, ten mm in tire width, and go down 10% in aspect ratio. i.e. if stock is 225/75R15 then a "plus one" tire would be 235/65R16
