I see it now. I mis-understood what I saw. Standard "Wheels" were 16-4 1/2, 
optional "Tires" are 15-6. Had I thought for even a second I would have 
realized you ain't gonna put 15" tires on 16" rims.Thanks for setting me 
straight. Still have part 2 to contend with. One reason I am considering the 
15's is that I have a 3/4 Ton that I call the "Sleepy Dragon". The 1/2 Ton I am 
doing now is going to be "Little Bro". My thinking is that the 1/2 ton will 
look even smaller with the 15" tires and that is the desired effect.

  My 51 Restoration Packgage from GM lists option 273 for 15-6 tires. (Front, 
Rear and Spare)

  I am restoring a '51 deluxe to factory original. I know the stock wheels were 
16" and there does not appear to be an option for 15". However, I have seen 
several references to 15" on this forum and others. Were they an option? If so, 
in your opinion, which looks better? Part two - anybody got 5 of either kind 
they would part with?
