Question for the Dukes of Hazzard crew

[marshallfry01]

This might be the wrong place to ask this.... so mods feel free to move it somewhere else. With that being said, what size wheels/tires were used on Daisy's CJ7 jeep? I have a 1972 CJ5 with the original steel wheels on it. They are super ugly and way too narrow. The wheels and tires look great on Daisy's jeep. (I'm not into lifted jeeps with huge tires) I want the same setup that her jeep had. I think the wheels were something like a 15x8. Not sure about tire size. They look smaller than a 33. Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

To my knowledge, Dixie's tires & wheels were stock Jeep Golden Eagle equipment.  I'm nowhere near an expert on DoH trivia, but all the pictures I've seen show a 1979 model even though I've heard it referred to as a 1980 model often.

15x8 spoke wheels
9.00x15 Goodyear Tracker A/T (bias ply or bias-belted tires, not radials)...  These would have been about 29" tall, but they are no longer made/available anywhere AFAIK.

Thanks! That's exactly what I was needing to know!
