    I seen these for sale, they are steel and have 6.00 x 16 firestones. What are they from and are they worth getting? ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1373596133.159977.jpg

    Farm or construction, more likely farm equipment.

    -------------------
    Farm implement wheels of some sort.
    They're spindle mount wheels so you
    couldn't run front brakes with them.
    They'd look cool if they were chromed,
    though and maybe on a T-bucket or
    a nostalgia g***er or altered type
    rqce car where you don't necessarily
    need to run front brakes, What are
    you thinking of putting them on??

    Years ago they made sand buggy wheels like that except they used square tubing for the spokes

    Another thing about those wheels you need to take in consideration,,they were not designed for speed so I highly doubt they are true and perfectly round. HRP

    Ditto on that! LOL!! :D

    P.S. Considering their agricultural
    and 'manure spreader' origins,
    maybe they'd also be at home and
    in their place on the front end of a
    replica or nostalgia "A/FX" race
    car. But not "A/FX" as in "A/Factory
    Experimental
    " though. Rather, "A/FX"
    as in "A/Factory Excremental"!!! :eek::eek::eek:
