Re: wheels and rims
Ted, I went thru the same thing with my 23 Canadian Coupe.
I thought the car was nicely original but on removing the wheels to rewood them had 2 different types of felloes & 3 types of rims.
Mine are Kelsey loose lugs wheels.

On closer inspection the lighter ones do in fact have Kelsey Wheel stamped on them.
I believe the important dimensions are the same - ie. where the rim meets the felloe front & back.

Kelsey loose-lug wheels
I am learning about these wheels that I have on our 1923 Canadian Coupe
There are 2 different kind of lugs, ones with a flat nut and ones with a conical nut.
One side of the car has the flat ones the other side the conical ones.
Which one is correct or are both correct?

Other options offered later in 1926, perhaps for the 1927 models. WHEELS: Open cars used 30 by 3-1/2 tires...

Re: Removing stuck inner front wheel bearing
Thanks guys, I got it, had to move up 1 hammer size and filed a chisel down flat and pounded away.
I checked the bearing against another spindle and it slides right on.
I took some emery cloth to the spindle very lightly, it did not seem to have a high spot.

I am having some problems removing this bearing. I may have messed it up already trying to use my gear puller behind the seal and possibly bent the cage.
Any ideas? I know it is NOT supposed to slip on the spindle but this one is really tight.

Stumbled across this watching something else, found it very interesting.
Lots of the same things as in our Model T wooden wheels.
I like the part where half the spokes were put in backwards.
