Title: 68 KR Spare tire identification
Post by: Steve Z on November 05, 2018, 07:50:32 AM
  What are the things to be looking for on a spare tire rim, such as date code and markings? I understand that it is a Kelsey 15 x 6 rim. Pics if anyone has some. Thanks Steve

No something not right about the stamping around the lug holes
And the center opening looks too big
