    If I may, what is a "wheel radius" ?
    The radius of the wheel ? Pi x the diameter ?
    Please explain.

      Welcome to the SDC and to the SDC Forum Adam!

      The C, K and Hawk WheelBASE from 1953 to 1957 was> 120.0 Inches, from 1958 to 1964> 120.5

      The Wheel SIZE (Diameter) from 1959 to 1964 is 15 Inches X 4 1/2" Width with a 5 on 4 1/2" Bolt Circle.

      UPDATE: The 1958 ONLY; Silver, Golden and Packard Hawks, did have 14 Inch Wheels.

        Is the original poster asking about turning radius?
