: i will be looking for a set of 16" kelsey hayes wheels for my 31----all i can remember about them is that the recognition feature is bent spokes as opposed to the straight spokes of the ford welded wire wheels----and that the k-h wheels were a little stronger than the ford wheels.

: can anyone tell me if there are different varieties of the k-h wheels and if some are better than others?

: also---i think i remember seeing some of these wheels using plain hub caps instead of the V8 logo variety--if so what would these have been from originally ?

: what would be a fair market value for a set of 4 or 5 16" k-h wheels in perfect or nearly perfect condition ?

: carla
I see these wheels sometimes at the Pomona swap meet...usually a good wheel goes for $40-$50...seems like most of the Kelseys are in good shape....unlike stock 19 inch wheels...
The four cylinder wheels used a different logo on their hub caps...just the word ford..kinda pretty...I bought some really nice stainless ones from Bob Drake...also has plain stainless...but the script ones are much nicer...
