Do 68 buses come with wide 5 wheels?

I can't remember if they do and if you need an adapter to balnce them on a normal balancer. I was thinking the answer to both was "yes".

It is not the years it is the miles I guess.

Actually I was over visiting Chris's 68 very nice little bus over in Kittery, Maine and we were talking tires. I told him that if one has wide 5 wheels anymore (he had hub caps on it), it would be a nice investment to just buy the wheel balancer, so you will have it when you need it done.

I had one when I had split window buses, but I don't have it anymore.

I'm starting to get little wafts of bus stink coming from the north. Something about the unique scent of drivers seat padding when it's glued together with mouse piss and shit that really gets me going... and I'm smelling it! Oh yeah! Time to start loading up the equipment.
