I am looking for replacing some bad wheels on a 1909 REO touring car. If you would know of any parts please advise. The hubs seem to be ok.
Thanks
Does anyone have any wheels or rims that would be for a 1909 REO Touring car

In your off topic post, your pics show what appear to be Firestone demountable type rims. These rims are basically flat, with 2 full circle bead rings and a snap ring to retain it all together. Not incredibly common to find these rims, bead rings, or snap rings in usable condition or the needed diameter. You may consider using the later style lock ring rims that are readily available new. Much more reliable design with fewer components, and no rust!

No I don’t Herb. But I have 3 running board brackets that came off a 10-11 REO if you need them…
