    Yeah, Radir. I'd say it's a bolt on, it's got the recesses for the washers that go on the nuts.

    thanks guys! hey wheelkid if you are refering to the cast center on backside for a name it says nothing at all. if you are refering to the backside steel rim too much rust to read.

    I found a set in a junkyard, 14x6 ,chevy bolt pattern. mine say M/T RADER on the back. These were made when Rader sold to M/T.

    I didn't know Rader sold to M/T. I've got an old Rader catalog from the 60s that I ordered. My favorite wheel combination was the round tapered spoke 5-spoke wheel in front and a pair of slots in the back.
    Rader also sold a "lakes pipe" kit which was a finned 2/3 tube to be trimmed to fit over the pipes under the rockers. Illustration was a 55 Chevy.
