And if you read through this it discusses wire wheels in some detail including some prices on hubcaps.

ROD W Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Stuart, Are those the 24" wheels that were on the Gumtree add. I have a set of 22" Ash wire wheels for my 25 Master, but they are in poor condition. There,s a 21" wheel in Victoria at the moment for $250, Those four cylinder wheels are advertised for $1500. I have a number of hubs that look identical, but some fit the 22" wheels and others the wheels won,t quite fit on. Maybe the hubs that don,t fit are four cylinder or Standard car hubs. I don,t feel like buying the $1500 wheels then find they are the wrong size. Let me know if you decide to sell the 24" wheels. Rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Rod, I got my wheels from a friend who had a 1924 McLaughlin and I was going to use them on a race car replica project - see photo. The " handbrake " has reminded me I have a few things on the go so this planned project may not eventuate. In the meantime I decided I would like to fit a set of Kelsey Hayes wire wheels and spinners on my 1955 Buick Super convertible and thought some Prewar Buick enthusiast in the USA may have a set that they may like to do a swap for my ASH wheels and lock nuts/hubcaps. I don't want to sell the wheels and caps but am looking to trade them for a set of 1955 Kelsey Hayes wires which would mean I could scratch the race car project idea ( don't think another set of wires will turn up ) and get the upgrade of wheels for my 55. Sounds simple!!! Edited December 28, 2017 by 50jetback (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
