All the 68 Shelby wheels that I have or have seen have been Kelsey Canada. Never seen a USA one before.

Don't believe these wheels to be correct for a 68'.
Wondering what their application was? Would make a great alternative to the cost of correct wheels at a substantially lower price.

From the photos I can not see any differences between these USA wheels and a Canada wheel other than the way the info is stamped. They look right to me from the photos other than like I stated before I have never see a 68 15x6 Kelsey USA wheel before, only Canada's. The Ford application for these wheels in 1968 is full size police cars, station wagons and Shelby Mustang's.

I had a few K3 ones and they were identical to K2.  The K3 ones I had were late dated, like June/July of '68.
