knock-off wheels 1964

[Joe C.]

Is there any codes or markings to tell if you have original knock off wheels? any way to date them? I know that they were an option, were they from GM? Any info would help.

Joe -

Original KO wheels were made by Kelsey-Hayes, and will have the "K-H" and a number cast into the back side of the wheel as shown below; if the wheels have "Western Wheel" cast in the back side, they're aftermarket reproductions.

1964 ONLY have a rubber stamp code on the back side, 1965 and 1966 do not.
