[VAC] Re:



George,
    Thanks for the second opinion.  While not the original owner, I have a
copy of the original manual for the 66 Safari.  Under specifications for
wheels it says 2 - 15" Drop Center, under Tires it says 2 - 7.00 x 15"
8-ply nylon, tubless.  That's what guided me during restoration while up in
Oregon.  I think that the occurence of "Split Rims" were a dealer or after
market conversion . . . at least on our 66 Safaris.
