disc brake wheels - or - NON-disc brake wheels, that is the question...
Good morning folks - I've been following along on the disc brake stock wheels thread (and markeb01 has some great info on the recent and previous threads) . The picture of the radir wheel that demonstrated how a wheel is not a disc brake wheel helped me understand the difference between the wheels. Since i want to eventually put discs on my 66, I'm in the hunt for a set of early 70's-80's stock wheels - but first I wanted to check my current wheels to make sure they were NOT disc brake wheels.... especially since I already dumped a bundle on powder coating (I know, not the best planning of the build). Anyhoo, once I pulled the wheels, I really wasn't sure anymore that they were not disc brake wheels - so am posting a few pics to see what you may think - are these disc brake wheels OR stock mid-sixties non-disc brake wheels. 3 pics of the inside of one of them - I don't see the extreme inner wheel taper that the radir in mark's pics had - but then again, it's not exactly "flat" heading to the center, so not sure if discs would fit or not...
Appreciate your help - just curious if anyone out there would know at a glance which wheels these were - disc or non-disc. Thanks!
