16" Split rims,,,worth anything?
So I bought a 68 F250, 360, 3 on the tree, has the original (I think) 16" split rims on it, didn't know if they were worth anything to restorers or just scrap metal?
Thanks

These rims aren't really all that bad, i use to run them on my truck. only problem is no tire shops will work on them and every body thinks they are terrible. I actually kind of like them as they make mounting heavy ply tires by hand easier. These are more of a snap ring type rim rather than a true split rim and work fine as long as they are in good shape and proper precautions are used when mounting tires on them. Might be some super die hard restorers out there that are interested in them but probably not worth a whole lot.
