Wheel rims

Needed for my project. 3 split rims with 6 bolt tabs on each. They measure 4 1/4" wide by 22" diameter and take a 600X20 tire. Typically on mid 20's cars.

Hello Jack
I can come up with three wheels with 6 lugs, however they are from a B-22, HP 32 x 4 1/2. This size was also used on the early Flints

Bob....
Aren't the early Flint Wheels only 5 lug rims?

Re: Wheel rims

Hello Jim

I think the first were five lug...then they still offered the high pressure (two wheel brakes) after the balloon tired four wheel braked cars were made available.
Probably the offer was more to rid old stock then to alleviate any fear of the dangerous new four wheel brakes.
