Ford wheels

[Lynn Eades]

I know nuthin' about this set up, but those centers in Scott's photo look like the centers of the earlier spoked wheels that had a small dia. hub cap located by a bolt in the center, and so the reason for the bar across the center. I am thinking that maybe those wheels were made up from the spoked centers, a wider 13 inch rim and flat plates ( two?) to complete them? Just my thoughts.

Try 2 U.S. sites; Fordbarn.com OR H.A.M.B. com First one is all about V8 Fords [Early V8] Flathead powered vehicles. And the other is Hot Rodders. Dave N

What size of 16” tires do you have?

I bought goodyear tractor tires, not rated for the street, they were 850X or 900X 16 i think with a very nice dimond thread. i bought them early in the build because goodyear stopped making them and the price was sky rocketing. I never concidered they were 13"

I doubt any of the US sites would have the faintest clue about 9.00-13 tires or 13 wheels.
