Those look like Ford wheels, but to my eye they look a little 17-ish. I could be wrong.
The brakes look like the '48's since they have those little dimples on the backing plates and no adjusters on the bottom shoe pins. But the drums are the earlier '40 style since the hubs are inside, not outside. They can be used together no problem though.

Seeing how I have nothing in them I think I might just put a sign that says lets make a deal on them all
thanks for the info http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

The bolt pattern should 5on 5 and 1/2.
They look like all the ford wires I have. I'm sure the tire has the size on them.
