Default Wire wheels for my 34

I Need 4/1/2 x 16 and 7 x 16 with 5 on 5 1/2 Wire Wheels. Have been talking with WheelSmiths. Has anyone dealt with them? Do you have other options? Thanks

Default Re: Wire wheels for my 34

Since you didn't take the time to add your approximate location when you registered...this info may be totally useless to you....but there is, or was the last time I looked into widening a set of my stock '35 wires, a guy located in N.J. who can do a great job of widening or narrowing these old Ford wheels, be they wires or stamped steel centers. I have his name, shop location, & pricing at that time, listed somewhere in my files, but can't put my hands on that info at the moment. Perhaps the guys here from N.J. can add that info.

They just made me a set of solid rims. I was very pleased with the customer service and the product. Shipping on 2 large solid rims was $80, which I thought was a fairly good price.
