MG,

Nice, the wheels look to be in good condition.

What do you think, do they look the same? Two areas that may be different, hard to tell from photos.
1). Valve stem diameter, older wheels had larger valve stems ( the wheels in my photo have the smaller diameter); and
2). the back spacing may be different.

The above wheels are in storage now, will check back spacing in next few days and report it.

The reference for the valve stem diameter information came from "60-66" reported in another thread, he also reported additional information on decoding the KH information stamped in the wheels.

Note: The above wheels came off a 1966 truck, look to be original to that truck. However, no way to be sure.
