Dodge/plymouth artillery wheels for sale

[olddaddy]

I have a set of four artillery wheels that I believe are 16", 10 hole 5 on 4 1/2" pattern for Dodge or Plymouth.  They are not real pretty, but should clean up ok with some sandblasting.  I've got $300 in them and would like to get that back.  $300 if picked up in Davenport, FL or $400 shipped to US lower 48 address.

Hi there. 
 

i know this is a year old post, but do you still have these 10 hole Plymouth wheels?

 

thanks. Adrian.

I do have a 10 hole Plymouth set for sale.

Hi again. 
 

can you give me an idea of how badly pitted these are? Are the inner beads not rusted and are all the lug holes Ok? 

[olddaddy]

All I can tell you is in the pictures.  The set I  blasted and primed for my truck were in the same condition.  Front pics are in the ad, back pics are attached.

Just a word of advice, here. These are correct for Plymouth cars and Plymouth and Dodge trucks. They are not factory correct for Dodge passenger cars, although they will work.

Hi there, could you please explain the differences in them? I’m not a dodge/Mopar guy so this is all new to me.

This is a Dodge wheel: (You'll note that it has fourteen "spokes" and fourteen corresponding holes between the spoke-like shapes.) Dodges used lug bolts rather than lug studs and nuts like Plymouth did. Plymouth wheels used a locating pin to help in placing the wheel on the hub. As a result, Plymouth wheels had an extra hole between the lug holes to place the wheel on when mounting to the wheel.

 

 

This is a Plymouth artillery wheel. Note the different number of "spokes" and holes. It was also used on Dodge trucks, because it was less prone to bending than the Dodge one pictured above:

Okay understood. There are obvious visual differences that’s for sure between the two, what I didn’t know if the location hole in the Plymouth wheels. 
 

thanks for the info. I’ll put it to memory.

What a great explanation HW. 

Very good of you to take the time and educate those of us who have always looked at these wheels like a lost puppy. 

I never had any use for understanding it but am grateful for a very good explanation for those that might need it someday. 

I wish more guys would take the time to help others fwiw.

Kudos

I guess that while I'm on the subject, I'll mention again that the Dodge wheels are rather flawed in that they tend to bend rather easily. If you'll notice the area between and around the lugholes on the Dodge wheel, you'll see that the metal is rather flat. The Plymouth wheel has raised areas between the lugholes. These raised areas act like gussets to strengthen this important part of the wheel. The Dodge wheels will bend in this area between the lugholes. It's just speculation on my part, but I've always believed that is why pickup trucks, of both Dodge and Plymouth brands, came from the factory with the "Plymouth" style wheels.
