I'm been looking at wheels for my 31 sd & have noticed that where the spokes go into the outter rim, that area is wider on some wheels than others. One measures approx 1-3/4 while the other measures approx 1-7/16. Does anybody know why? Are there i.d. marks on 31 wheels? If so, where might someone find them?
thanks, joe

yes JYD, That is correct. It is a little taller. You didn't indicate if there are any i.d. marks on them
thanks, joe

Actually there are two wire wheels for 1930 and three for 1931. One for each year had adjustable spokes and are extremely rare. The JYD is correct that the center depression is narrower for 1930. There were at least two different manufacturers of wire wheels for 1930 and three for 1931. Hence the difference in markings and dimensions.

The '31 pickup used disc wheels and not wire. They are the same as 1930 disc wheels.
