Wheel identification

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hey all, does anyone recognize this wheel style? I got a used set of 4 wheels for my 2a and one of them had these hubcap slots in them. I also bought a 71 wagoneer that happened to have 3 of them as well, I just switched the two wheels and now both vehicles have a full set. I don't think they are original wagoneer wheels as they are 16" and according to my research wagoneers only ever had 15". Was there a vehicle out there that had this style?

	Most of the early international wheels I've seen have the "bumps" stamped into the wheel. I found these on a website, they said they are jeep wheels but not from what. I assume they have dog-dish style hubcaps. Anyone know of a jeep that came with 16" wheels and dog dish hubcaps?

	Awesome, thanks Roc! I'll do some more research and see if I can find some kaiser-willys hubcaps to go on them.

	They'll end up saying JEEP on them.....I run 4 of 'em on my trailer. The front ones with the hub cutout are kinda pricy if they have the factory rolled edge on them. Most just cut the center's out of rear ones.....just saying. I don't think they are repopping those yet. I'm using mine on GM wheels (to fit my trailer pattern) that have the hubcap nubs on them so they will fit other wheels too.

	These look a tad different than some I've seen. They sure look like 5" wide rims to me....
