At first glance they appear to be 1 1/2 ton AD wheels. 10 bolt, 7 1/4 bolt spacing with 5 1/4 center. The center has 5 spokes but the rim is an 18 inch. The tire on it is 7.00 x 18.
Who's wheel is it?

the 18" is the confusing part.
Sounds rare/unusual/uncommon to me.

fil | | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 477 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: May 2001 Posts: 477 | not unusual, but uncommon. i've seen them used on fleet trucks so that tires wouldn't develop the habit of walkin' off. the last 18 inch wheel i can remember seeing was a custom built g.m.c. step van thathad a hudraulic bucket setup mounted on the top. a person could walk thru the "cab" part, in directly into the bucket or platform, then the thing elevated so a guy could change streetlight bulbs.
like i said......not common. neither was the 409 in it. (that part, i kept!) | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 | Hy guys, those wheels sounded rare/unusual to me also, so I did a little research. 1960 40 series, had two different 18" wheels, one 18"x5.0" p/n 2364442, side ring 3707074, locking ring 3682062, and one 18"x5.5" p/n 5769144, side ring 5769145, hope that helps. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 92 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 92 | It won't fit my 48's, can't even get 19.5's over the drums. I'll post pictures soon for anyone that may want them. I'll dismount the tires and make sure they are usable first,
Scott | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 3,068 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 3,068 | I got them apart, rather easily I might add. They are in pretty decent shape. Here they are. Is there any chance these are Binder or Stude wheels? If anyone knows anyone who is in need of these odd balls, send them my way, Scott | | |
