Technical Wide 5 rims

Are all wide 5 rims 16 inch?

 

There are rare 18".

Since you didn't limit your inquiry to Ford wheels specifically, be aware that there are a lot of 15" and even some 14" out there, both commercial and homemade for circle track racing and street use.

 

I have a set of 15s, but they are cut down

 

Marmon Herrington used 15'' on some of their work.

 

Thanks fellas. Will have to get them measured.

 

Got a pic? @panhead_pete they're all quite visually different

 

Sure they're Ford wide fives and not VW? Bought the wide five spare wheel for my p/u from a guy who bought it thinking it was a VW wheel.

 

205mm (8.07") v. 10-1/4" should be easy to distinguish.

 

Or as it was explained to me if you can put your head through the hole it's a Ford. If not then it's a VW

 

Thanks!

 

They're the most common 16x4

 

16 x 3.5 V8-60 and 16 x 4 look the same, but the width.


16 x 5 doesn't have the short spokes.


18's have longer spokes.

 

Ford tractors had yet another Wide 5 pattern, and larger diameter wheels.

 

Those are 16" x 4".

 

Renault, DB and Panhard had 16 and 15" wide five too since some of those cars made it to the US there's a remote chance of coming accross such wheels.
Matford had them in 16" also but they're Ford wheels and none were sold in the US at the time.
