Tim Avery Posted September 20, 2022 Author Share Posted September 20, 2022 (edited) I am a Ford guy and have no use for these. I tried to join a Facebook Group "Vintage Dodge etc etc 1920 t0 1950" so I could reach a few more folks. Was denied. Don't want to be active in their group, just want to sell the wheels. Not much interest in the Flathead Ford Groupe. And what is a DA Tim Edited September 20, 2022 by Tim Avery (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nearchoclatetown Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Eagle Eye John is right. These are not DA. DA wires are built with both 48 and 60 spokes that are adjustable and have a lock ring. They also are 5 on 5 1/2 bolt circle with 5/8 studs, I think. These look like smaller.

Tim Avery Posted September 21, 2022 Author Share Posted September 21, 2022 So if they are not DA wheels, did Dodge have a 17inch wheel like this on any other car. Is there a chance that they may not be Dodge at all. Maybe an aftermarket wheel to replace a Dodge wheel like the Kelsey Hayes were an aftermarket for Ford. The wheel has an extra hole for alignment.

Mattml430 Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I painted these for a bloke not long ago. They actually look very similar to yours. Not sure if they were dodge or Chrysler. I think it was a 34. sorry I gave you a bit of a bum steer saying they were DA. I was completely wrong there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manuel Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 17" Dodge wire wheels have 36 spokes in 2s with flat heads. The inner spokes are 3" long and outer are 5" long. They are 5 stud & 1 extra smaller hole. Hope this helps. Manuel in Oz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
