Thank you to all who answered this thread and provided comments concerning tire type and size, hubcap recommendations and/or steering geometry remarks. For what it's worth, the 7 wheels I have are of two different spoke designs, as shown in the photo below: 5 of what I presume (from some of the posted replies) are 1935 Ford wheels with 32 spokes (the red-primer wheel on the left) and 2 with 40 (non-bent) spokes (the gray-primer wheel on the right). With the exception of a lip on the inner edge of the center hub (where the wheel contacts the brake drum) which appears on the 5 32-spoke wheels only (the 2 40-spoke wheels have an unlipped center hub inner edge similar to the standard 19-inch rims) all other dimensions (17-1/2" OD with a 5-1/8" width at the rim edge) and construction appear similar. Thanks again for the responses.
