Can any of you tell by this picture if these are the narrow or wide steel rims? Also would these be 16” or 16.5”. There a few hours away so want to find out before making the drive.

Here is the front. The caps don’t look bad. I’m not worried about the wheels themselves being rusted. I can blast them and then powdercoat. The rears look wider in picture, but the front doesn’t so I’m just not sure.

They are the "safety bead" type 16.5's, probably the usual 6.75" width.

It also looks like the rims and axles are from a '77. Dana 44 front, non flat top passenger side knuckle, internal type locking hubs and '77-up poverty cap style.

oh well, was worth a look. I ended up picking up a set of H2 wheels cheap this weekend, so guess I'll roll with them for awhile.
