I went out to the garage to look up the rim for ordering tires for the hay rack by A.C., I know they are 15" but do not know the width without breaking them down. I looked for a number stamped on them like 15x ? but did not find one. The only stamping in the rims are the letters EWC and the number C10868, any ideas on the rim width.

Thanks,

Danny

Measure with caliper through the center hole are bowed leg caliper around the tire. They will be even inch or half inch, so you take off two metal thicknesses from measuring outside. The size stamp that I've seen is on the inside hidden by the tire.

Or cut two straight sticks to fit the outside of the flanges, but inside the flares. Hold them in place and measure the spacing through the center hole with a suitable calibrated stick. Take off two metal thicknesses.
