The standard Tudor Sedans left the factory with black wheels (for the most part). The Deluxe models had wheel color that matched the pinstripe (again, for the most part). Your car has cowl lights so it appears to be a deluxe or at least a deluxe clone, and wheel color matching the stripe would be expected.
Now, keep in mind- Dealers were known to make changes to the cars at customer request to complete the sale. If the lady of the house wanted cream wheels, chances are the dealer would make that happen. So all bets are off on how it left the dealership.

P.S.,
Thanks. As I've never had a Model A before I'm just trying to learn about them.
Bob Bidonde,
I'm not particularly interested in having a perfect restoration. As I said to P.S., I'm just trying to learn more about these cars. I imagine that when I die and my children inherit this car it'll still look just like it looks now. Only dirtier and with more paint chips. I bought this thing to drive the wheels off of it, not put it on a pedestal like having a Picasso on the wall or something.
Thank you both for taking your time to share your knowledge.
oh-by-the-way, I hope I don't wear out my welcome on this forum as I'm pretty sure I'll be asking a lot of questions in the future. I've been on the barn for 15 years and seldom post, but that's about to change.
