Hi BAK, Right-on. Those wheels are 19" model A wheels, right? You've given me confidence to put 17" ones on my model A. I thought I had 16", 1935 wheels until I bought some 16" tires, and the guy that sold them to me was looking over my wheels and I was chatting him up, [bragging] so I pulled out my measuring tape and found out that I had 17" 1934/33 wheels. Anyhow your 19's look alright on a Model A.

I approve of everything but your choice of beverage on top the air cleaner........

I think it looks pretty cool, not a fan of those old wheels when hp is involved however...
Maybe someone else can chime in about the older wheels...

You definitely have a good look going, like the quarter elliptical springs in front!

Very cool car.

I suppose it's possible they are repop wheels.

Yes those wheels are 19's. They are pretty straight and true. The beer on top of the air cleaners was not my choice believe me. haha. But that is what we had and I didn't pay for it. so I wasn't about to turn it down.

Know how that goes all too well.........

The wheels are actually original wheels. They are not repops

I agree with you when it comes to hp. That is a 1955 270 Super Red Ram Hemi. So there definitely is not much hp output from that. So that's why I went with those wheels instead but I also know that I did step on it once just to see how it would perform from a dead stop and I bent a couple spokes so I had to get them re-straightened. haha. But good wheels though.
