on or off the car. if they are off the car K-H will me stamped on the back of the wheel for a real one. if it is a repo it should say "western wheel". if they are on the car it has to do with the fine lines in the designs.

And real K-H bolt-ons have these sixteen stiffening ribs cast-in on the back and will NOT have "Western Wheel" cast-in:

I was wondering if my wheels were original, and by looking at the above picture I realize they are. The one I removed to check also has what must be a date stamp that looks like B6 28 65.
What would a set of four of these that need to be restored be worth??

the wheels in question have been on the car for over 30 years now.
so I guess when I pick up the car I will Jude look at the back side of the wheel
i only have pictures of the whole car so the wheels are not close up
and if I blow up the photo it gets blurry
can I text you a photo for your opinion?
