I was at a meeting recently and someone mentioned my original rims on my 1951 Landcruiser. He told me to be careful because those rims tended to split and fracture which is a safety hazard. I didn't know anything about this issue. Is anyone aware of this problem with late '51's. He told me to get Ford rims instead. I do have one Ford rim and that works fine. The original rims do have rivets on the inside and the tire shop put in some tubes because he felt the tire could hold air unless he did. Does that mean I can't put steel belted on my car without using tubes inside. When I mentioned putting tubes inside my steel belted tires, everyone seemed puzzled.
Thanks,
