  3. Sweet, I just needed a few pics for some idea as to how the size of the wheel was going to affect leg room or anything. I found some pics of the Green Grenade and another model A coupe on here thats running the wheel. RAD, thanks man

    If I'm not mistaken, aren't all Ford wheels 17" diameter? It may look bigger due to the design but, dimentionally they are all around 17".

    I also can be completely off base and not know what the hell I'm talking about. Always a possibility.
     
  5. Here is one in a '32 5 window. As stated, the '46 -'48 wheels are about the same size as the earlier wheels.

    Yes...I've got a row of Ford wheels, and all are just about the same. This was a surprise...to me, the '39 banjo and the '48 both look to be gigantic compared to the '32's or '40's, but it is just a visual effect. Your knees are safe.
