    If they are cheap or free grab them. The six lug means they are probably Chevy.

  6. I had a set that looked pretty much like yours, but I was thinking they were 17". Anyway, they had Chevy hubcaps on them and I was told they came off a '35 Chevy.

    They look like the international artillery wheels on a 40 IH I just did but they were 5 bolt.

  10. Get that sewing machine treadle too, for a wall hanger,,,:rolleyes:
     
  11. Not to be a wiseguy, but you are measuring the correct dimension?

    choffman41....NO problem,
    I measured these a couple months ago, memory gets a lil fogeee some times.
    I think I measured the inside lip where the tire bead rests in the wheel, I'll measure again next week before I leave for B-ville.
    Thanks.......
     
  13. The raised area for the valve stem is the giveaway, that is unique to a 18" hoop.
    18" wide five has it and the High Clearance (milk truck) wheel has it.

    Very cool find.

    Try airing up the tires and rolling them out in the light more.
