    Trying to ID the wheels on this car. I'm thinking 35-36 wide five but i can't zoom in enough to be certain and i can't figure out the caps.

    Any help would be appreciated!

  2. looks like 36-38 with outer center cap chromed instead of painted.
     
  3. I can't see enough detail to be certain, but they look a lot like Lincoln Zephyr caps. Lincoln Zephyr used a wider version of the wide five. 60 HP cars '37-'39 had a 16 x 3.5 version of this wheel, other '36-'39 Fords had a 16 x 4 wide five wheel, and if I remember right Lincoln Zephyrs had a 4.5 wide version. Any of the wide five caps will fit any of the wide five wheels.
