Rims
 

Is there a online shop where I can order rims for my model a?
Don't have to be wire wheels.

Most of the vendors sell the correct new wire wheels, as does Coker tire.

All kinds of rims will bolt to the Model A. Used rims should be easy to find. The new Model A rims are very true and well balanced and are of great quality. The down side is that they are costly, over $300 each.

Full size Ford truck wheels use to fit, probably still will. Berts in denver has good used model A wheels that I would rather have any day compared to the expensive new repro wheels. I have used both. Call Berts, tuesday through saturday at noon. 800-321-1931

Remember if you use late model solid rims with mechanical brakes ('40-'48 Ford among others) you will probably need adapters. The bolt pattern is the same but the early wire wheels and brake hubs/drums are actually at 2 levels. See: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/t.../#post-8330045
