Technical What are these wheels?

]in digging thru a stash i found a set of these rims: 5x5.5 bolt pattern,5 inches wide and 16 inch diameter. They have 5 clips in the center opening. what are they? Any idea of value?

Value ? not much $5 each maybe. Ford or Jeep would be my guess.

 

'40s Lincoln or late '40s/early '50s Chrysler NY/Imperial........is my thought.

 

I'm not real sure what those are,might be Mopar. I'm not aware of Ford ever using clip for the hubcap. Without knowing what they are, and they need sandblasted,etc., I would tend to agree with John ^^^.

Someone here will know what they are.

 

40's Lincoln used the clips and some of the later F series.

 

Might be late '40's Lincoln; I had a convert.

 

I would say early Chrysler products, But there is no hole for locating pin on these wheels so that leaves Chryco out, had a second look ,noticed no hole.
Aren't all early Fords 5 on 5 " bolt pattern with bigger center hole.
Need to measure them a little more.

 

Jeeps never had hubcaps so they are not jeep.

 

40 Lincoln according to*****ty photo on my*****ty phone

 

53' chevy had that style of rim and had clips in the middle. I can measure my mine to see if it's a match. What's the diameter of the recess with the clips around it?

 

Lincoln.

 

Ok. I agree Lincoln, I see measurement 5x 5 1/2" .

Chev Pontiac had clips but bolt pattern was 4 3/4" .

 

With the 5 on 5 1/2 bolt pattern part of his statement...can't be Chevy...it's 40's Lincoln.

 

center hole also too small for Jeep

 

so worth more than 5 bucks a piece then.

 

This is possibly the best early ford wheel thread ever:
