Unfamilar wheels...

    Can any of you gentlemen help me identify this wheel? Obviously I know it isn't K/F, but maybe in your experience with other older makes you might have come across one of these. It's mid-thirties, but I can't place any car that had a 5" bolt pattern, how about you? I got four new 6.00x16 tires at a swap meet, they came mounted on these freshly sandblasted and painted wheels. I'm sure that somebody could use them if I knew what they fit. Is anyone here familiar with pre-war Willys on this forum? Is that a possibilty?

    Here's the dimensions on these wheels:

    16" x 4 1/4" (bead)

    3 1/2" Center hole

    5 Lug, 5" bolt pattern

    10 "spokes"

    No hole for an alignment peg

    Time to get away from the wheels.

    Might possibly be a truck wheel and not for a car. Seems I remember seeing some 1930's-40's pickups with this type of wheel--possibly Dodge or Plymouth?

    I'm sorry about being repititious. I didn't realize that the same people browsed all of these different forums.

    All the old Chrysler products I remember had a line up pin, 4 1/4 inside rim width suggests 6:50---7:00 tires so that sorta leads to the bigger old cars of maybe GM during the 40's
