My Buddie Bill Dodd has a set of wheels with square felloes but oval spokes. What are these and what year were they made? I plan to use my router to make them into round felloe, oval spoke wheels.... But was surprised to see them. Any thoughts? - John

BTW Rims are 30X3.. Off to the blaster tomorrow!
Really John D.? They look just like Ford wheels.
John, in my experience they are not likely standard Ford issue wheels. They went to round spokes for greater strength as early as 1915 as far as I know. The square felloes came with the 1918 cars, so there is not much chance even of production overlaps with these characteristics you have. Sometime your wheels may have had some work done on them.
Hope this helps.
