    Knock Off Wheels - Authentic?

    I just bought a 65 roadster that came with ko's. After much persuasion, I got the spinners off (used a 25 lb lead brick and smacked the %$#^& out of them..the usual "tools" didn't budge them).

    Interestingly, the back of the spinners say "Made in USA" and the wheels have the following stamped on the back...

    Western Wheel Corp

    K-H 306055

    ZHD477

    15x6

    AH7390

    What are these wheels??? Are there American made reproduction ko's?

    The ko's on my coupe clearly state "Made in Taiwan"...no question there

    thanks

    Kellsey Hayes are the real McCoy's......

    Western's are the repop's. But then again, Western purchased the tooling from KH, so you have the original wheel made under a different name.
