They are Australian trailer rims, I have a WW2 4 wheel workshop trailer that has this size rim and a water trailer that is the same except that it is narrower, I think the Wiles 4 wheel cooker has the narrow rim as well. I have a big 2 wheel trailer that I have no idea what its purpose was originally and it has the wide rims.
The 6 stud pattern is British 6 stud as far as I can work out, it is the same as some Fordson truck rims I have. It is definitely not American 6 stud.
I tried to fit some 12.5/80-18 back hoe tyres to the wide rims but they were just to wide.

Looks not too dissimilar to the wheel on this WW2 International:

The two sellers are not too far apart, and the truck has a mismatched rim on the front right!

Default Rear body

Hi Tony,
Out of curiosity what would the body have been on the rear? The truck looks like it might have had a different back which has been removed and replaced with the tray.

Regards,
