Those are the old style one-piece flotation tires, and they don't look real good. You'll need three-to-five lug adapters, eight inch bead-lock rims, and 21 or 22 inch tires. What kind of tire really depends on what you want to do with it.
Time to dredge up an old post. Hopefully I still have the six wheeler, if I do it'll be here tomorrow. If it comes... what kind of tires are those? I'm trying to figure out how much a set of tires will cost.
Well that was fast! The body is in poor condition, so I'm going to re-fiberglass the outside and inside, I'll do some extra reinforcement on the lower half.
It's a Chaparral, made in the late sixties/early seventies. I think the engine is a transplant. They're not a very common machine, and well worth the effort of a restoration, but the weak point of the beast is the thin lower body that was prone to cracking up.
