Quite sure those are Michelin Disc - non-demountable, bolt on w/RH & LH threaded nuts - notice the absence of an inner tube stem - only disc wheels I've seen where the stem is in the backside - I have a restored set on my wife's F.C.'s car.

I have a set of DISTEEL wheels on my 23 fordoor. The valve stems are on the inside.

My DB disk wheels have the stem on the inside, but there is a window for bent stem to come through. Real pain to check tire pressure if stem is on the back side. :lol:
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas! :shock:
