Did the Dukes ever use 14" vectors?

Where they the prefered wheel?  Any idea on tire sizes?

14" and 15" diameters were used.  7"-8.5" widths were used.  14x7" was the most commonly used size of all.  

14x7 was the only size they used in the early Georgia shows.  The Valuzet crew (built the cars in seasons #2-4) started out using 14x7s but they eventually got some 15x8.5" rims that started showing up sporadically.  Later in the series the Warner Bros crew (built the cars from late season#4 thru the end of the series) used 14x7s on the front wheels and 15x7 or 15x8.5 on the rear of the stunt cars.  

Tire sizes tended to be in the 70-series sidewalls and 225-235ish widths.  They used a bunch of different tires throughout the series.
