I found what I believe to be an Appliance brand chrome wheel. It is a different style than any of those shown on the Appliance wheel thread. There may be more where this came from. It says "Do not use without retainer ring" around the hub. Does anyone recognize the bolt pattern? Are the retainer rings currently available? Any info would be helpful before I approach the owner. THANKS!
put it on a spindle - stick a hose behind it, give it a spin and use it for a sprinkler. I remember those wheels - not period pieces, they didn't sell many, and it's obvious why not. If memory serves, Appliance was making those in 64/65 or so...maybe early 66. dj
Those wheels had a different "retaining ring" for each bolt pattern. The ring fit over the center of the wheel and had tapered seats for the lug nuts to seat into.
