Yes. Photo below shows a '56 wheel with the rim size and cross-section, productlon date, Kelsey-Hayes logo, and the Tire & Rim Association logo; similar stampings continued well into the 80's.

John I have a wheel fetish. Is this May '56 wheel riveted or fuse welded with dog bones.
I betting on the later as I haven't come across a riveted '56 dated wheel so far.
