What is the most sought after early Ford rim?

These are harder to find than any 16" rim that Ford had.

These are 15" x 5" wide five rims. We used them on the left front of our oval track race cars.

I have a set of four but still don't know what they originally came on.

 

I know a 42-47 Ford pickup is not a Divco...and I was not implying that it was. Go back and read the post maybe??? I also already stated that I was wrong on Divcos before you posted. Again, sorry if I cramped your "style".

 

Ok an update, here are 2 bent spoke wire wheels I found. And a set of 4 ford rims I bought.Hopefully you can identify. Tell me what you think.

 

Here is the last pic of the spokers and the solids i got.

 

Anyone got the info?

 

modifieddriver:

the wheels you have are just like the ones that came fastory on my 47 F1 Marmon Herrington, probably pretty rare, I dont have any pics but i'll try to get some posted so you can see them

 

Calling the 18" accessory/high clearance wheels "Divcos" is kind of like using the term "G***er"...sure it's not technically correct, but everyone knows what you're talking about.

Another pretty sought after wheel is the Streamlite aluminum "trailer" wheel that is the 5x5.5 bolt pattern and accepts an early Ford hubcap. I'm going to use a set of these on my '32 Roadster.

 

The 18'' 5 on 5 1/2 hi clearance Ford wheel was made by K.H. And Divco Never Ever used that wheel. Divco had a bolt circle that was huge like old Ford 1 1/2 ton . GM used the 18'' 6 hole like Ford on the 3/4 ton '41 to '46 and in '47 GM went to 8 lug on the 3/4 ton. GM also used a 17'' 6 lug that was the same center as the 18''. The GM wheels in 18'' very very hard to come up with. BIG BUCKS

 

One other thing. Bud who raced on the dry lakes called the Ford and GM 18'' wheels the 18'' Biscut wheel He is 80 this month .

 

Chris I'll take them A/T wheels off your hands if there in your way.
