who makes these wheels?

Post by CO684X4 »

When I bought my F100 from the PO these wheels were in the bed. I have seen them on alot of the older ford trucks. Are they a ford wheel? If not who made them? Also did they have a center cap for them? All the ones I hace seen dont have center caps. Sorry this is the only pic I have found. Not my pic.

I don't know who made them, but I think they are called a western wheel. They are old school wheels.

They are called Western Wheels because they were originally designed and sold by Western Wheel Company. Later many companies made copies. Hawkrod

I believe Western Wheel sold these as 'Turbines'.
