C-1 wheels
Three question? Number one .. were there two different front wheel hub sizes 1953-1962 ( I am thinking 1 3/4 and 1 7/8???)and does any know if the 61-62 were the only wheels that were welded (circles) and does anyone have a picture of the weld or other id marks. Basically what is the difference between 1953 -1962 wheels?

I believe that there are rims with two different size spindle holes. I had a rim that I mounted a tire on BEFORE trying the rim on the spindle. would not go on, had to remount the tire on another rim AFtER trying and making sure that rim would fit.
