Great, thanks. I took a look at the OSHA document. It's helpful in showing where the stamps are located on wheels. This could be useful as I'm pulling together a complete set. I'm not finding those stamps though on 1967 wheels. So maybe not helpful for the older wheels. Perhaps they standardized these stamps a bit later? They also don't show the use of the solid locking rings that I'm seeing on the 67 Ford wheels, but it must be that those are too "obsolete" for that document.

If anyone has any split rim wheels from 1967, I'd be interested in buying some.

Wanting to match these...

Do my old split rim wheels have any value? Should I try to do something with them or just let them go with the tire shop?

I haven't come across anyone thinking that these are worth anything. The junk yards around here just scrap them and most people get rid of them off their truck. That being said, trying to find an original set has been tough because of that reason. I think I've found four but haven't seen them yet. I want five with lock rings that are all in good shape for obvious reason.. They have value to me and I'm paying for the ones I end up with. Will have them cleaned up and painted factory original.

If you have any that match what I'm looking for, I'd be interested if I can't find them close. I don't have a dually though. Maybe the fronts? I'm willing to buy them and have them shipped. It seems these are 1967 only.

You are welcome to the wheels, pay for the shipping/packaging and they are yours. We did *appear* to find some wheels.... they are being ordered and are ION 167 in Chrome. If they work, I am thrilled. The manager of the tire/wheel store seems pleased that they are going to work/fit. We should know in a few days. I really want to thank everyone for the help, man I am WAY out of my field of experience here.

Ok, I'll private message you. I found 4 of the locking ring wheels that appear to be factory original. Still trying to confirm that. I'll have to check the condition of them to make sure everything is usable. Need some backups and one for spare. So would be interested in your wheels if they match. Thank you.

Here's the ones I have lined up right now. Note the solid lock ring and the innie tabs for hubcaps.

I am a pilot, spent my first 8 years flying freight and now I have to wonder, if these split rings can be shipped...or are they hazmat? CF-49 will have to look them up. I know that they aircraft wheels we carried were under specific regs for being carried underneath the jet.

We can let the air out of the tires and remove them. Just ship the wheels and the locking rings in a box via ground frieght. Problem solved!

Unless I'm missing something @LLudwig 's wheels are dually wheels and you seeking single wheels. The only part that may work for you is the lock ring, assuming you both have the same style. I.e. Firestone RHP wheels.

Yes, seeking single wheels. Good point on the dually wheels. Thanks! I guess the fronts would be the same as singles but wouldn't be able to pull together a full set from that.

It seems for a 1967, 2 piece 16" wheels could have come in either innie or outie hubcap style. And could have come with either solid rings or split rings. And made by Budd or Kelsey Hayes.

Can anyone confirm or dispute any of this?

I'm wanting to put together a full set of 16" lock ring wheels that would have been factory original for a 1967 Ford F250 Camper Special. The truck I have came with 16.5" one piece drop center wheels made by Kelsey Hayes. I had three left on the truck and found the rest to complete the set. I will get these all clean up and painted.

Looks like the supply for the new coined trailer wheels is drying up, just about everyone shows out of stock.

You will have to look in junk yards or put an ad on Craigslist or Facebook...
I'd you go looking yourself look at '67-'79 Ford dually trucks and 70's-'92 dodge trucks and motorhomes.

Thank you,
Looks like I can get SRW front hub - B7Y1104A. What new wheel rim fit them? It is the same 16x6 8x6.5 coined but with about 0 offset
