    Buddy is being forced out of his shop a little earlier then he planned so he needed some help getting rid of some things. Picked up 11 of his wheels from him for a very good price. Only full set is the Rocket Racing wheels. I was really digging these Foremost SS wheels which if I remember right are from either Sears or JCPenneys, year says 1967 and are 14x6.....decent condition.

    Am I right or wrong on my ***umption on these?

    And does anybody have another pair or similar laying around that may match these (5x4.75)? IMG_20190309_173400711_HDR.jpeg IMG_20190313_162506.jpeg

    Those two Rader or M/T single ribs appear to have a large bolt pattern, maybe 5.5 ?, and also appear to be 14". I have two very good 14'' single ribs with the 5.5 pattern.

    Yes, the ribs are Raders. They have a date of '67 on them as well....I'll have to confirm the bolt pattern but they are definitely wide like 5x5 or 5x5.5, that I do remember
