Need a Kelsey outer rim that uses 30 x 3 1/2 tires
And takes the stud bolts holding clips and nuts.
The outer rim has one tab near the valve stem and has the ridge going completely around the outer edge with 4 slits the hold the 4 clips that grip the fellow of the inner wheel. Using for a spare tire.
Thank You MTFCA

Larry, a second type has a shoulder around the inside diameter of the rim. This shoulder wedges on the outer felloe edge. This type does not have the slits that let water into the rim/tyre assembly. The U shaped clip grip on the shoulder, rather than a cut out. They are interchangeable on the correct wheels. I have found Kelsey branded rims of BOTH types. These are superior to the slitted type, and easier to repair if worn where the lug engages.

Hope this helps.
