1935 ford wire wheel

 

CTFuzzzzz.....they have a 5-1/2" on five bolt pattern and are as tuck says:..1935 ford

 

Am I looking at this all wrong or what?? the tape says 5.25 inches..... not 5.5". i know it should be 5.5" you guys know more than me about this, but i know how to measure, or do i?? thanks.....

One of the goofiness aspects of measuring 5-lug patterns - you go from the edge of one hole to the middle of an opposite hole - just like your tape - which is reading 5.5"-ish because it still ain't perfect (you're not really measuring fully across the diameter of the bolt circle unlike an even lug pattern 4,6,8) - make sense? Or did I confuse you more?

looks like early Ford...

 

thanks guys.....i get it sort of......now on with your lives
