Ansen Rims

[Dave K.]

I was rooting around a field today looking at an old early 50s Chevy pickup which had been shortened and perhaps lowered (probably sitting on it's frame) and noticed these rims. They say Ansen Sprint and appeared pretty darn wide. Anyone know the vintage of these perhaps? I would use them but I can't think of anything I would put them on being as how they're so wide.... perhaps the low profile tires made them seem wider than they were. Sorry didn't have a tape measure...
