    I've got a couple of powdercoated rims I would like to sell but have no idea what they fit. Looks like 4 1/4 by 5 to me. 17.5 across so I think they are 16 inch. Help!

    I believe so.............but don't quote me on it. I'm not sure if they were available all years.

    "...from 49-52 Ford offered a 16x4.5 as an option..."

    I took this from Wheelkid's tech post on steel wheels from a while back. I'm sure he'd know better than I.
