Question RH-5 / Widowmaker ID

Hello, new to the forum. Picked up a 1950 F-6, and I'd like to address the wheels first to make sure I don't hurt myself or someone else.

I've spent hours reading about these wheels, and found pictures of the 1.5" band that identifies the widowmaker wheel. I do not see the same band on mine, so I think they are not the RH-5. Would someone knowledgeable give me a second opinion on what these rims are? Thank you!

They must have a lock ring on the other face?

Those two are side ring/lock ring. Don't assume the others match them. Check them all. Stu
