Model A wheel replacement

James, I suspect your racer wheels are 16" rather than 15"

Bill, the rule is, if the hub was meant for wire wheels you can use any Ford wire wheel with the same bolt pattern. If the hub was meant for disk wheels you can use any Ford disk wheel with the same bolt pattern. If you use disk wheels on a hub designed for wire wheels, you'll need an adapter. If you use wire wheels on a hub designed for disks, you'll need an adapter.

Yup, Geo has 'it' right. And, my '35 wires(40 spoke kelseys) are 16".
