For Sale: Kelsey 2845 rim

Post by kevinf » Wed Jan 03, 2024 6:55 pm

For Sale: I believe this is a Kelsey part number 2845 rim that uses the loose lugs and the flat bottom lug nuts. The bead around the inside of the rim is triangle in cross section. Please check the photos and verify before buying. The rim is 24 1/4" in diameter and should fit a 30x3.5" clincher. I gathered these up for a '20 Centerdoor, but have since sold the car and found this one buried in the back of the garage. Good shape with nice smooth edges and shows about 40% original plating. Price is $100 plus shipping.
Thanks,

That is a nice one Kevin. Of the two Kelsey designs we have, that is the better one. The triangular ridge on the inside diameter is easy to line up on the felloe when fitting, allowing easy setting up with minimal run-out. A bonus is there is no slot where the lug foot engages like there is in the type with a rolled in ridge, so water cannot get in and start rusting on the inside.

Wish it was here!
