Hello all,
Just wondering if the size of the hub of a combat wheel got smaller (by an 1/8 inch) in the 1960's. A buddy sold me a pair, but did not fit on my '46 Bantam trailer or my 52 M-38. Though they fit his '66 M151 and '60's trailer.
I just assumed WWII, and Korean war were the same, and figured Vietnam war would also be the same.

Any thoughts or info.

sounds like m151 rims, m151 rims will fit the rear of the willys but not the front on post war jeeps as the inside hub diameter is not large enough for the front hubs.
