Okay, I'm a bit confused here. Can someone please tell me exactly what size wheels/rims I should be looking for that are correct for my '22 TT, both front and back? I'm seeing lots of sizes out there; 21" wheels, 20" wheels, etc... then I look in my book and apparently I need 30 X 3 1/2, or 30 X 3.0? What am I looking for? I had a '20 TT for a brief time a few years back, but it had already been restored (to a degree anyway) when I got it. I have worked in the tire inductry for MANY years and am still confused. Help!

Rob

The front wheels could be either non-demountable clinchers (which would require 30 x 3 tires) or demountable clinchers (which require 30 x 3-1/2).

The truck experts will have to jump in on the rear wheels.

Hi Robert, The rear wheels should be the 23" ones which use a 32x4 1/2 straight side tire. Another size which may be a bit more common is 23 x 5.00, also a straight side tire. I hope that this helps. Bill
