    so i got this wheel and i'm wondering what it came off of. it's about 18" accross with a thick rim, about 1" diameter. even though it doesn't look like it, it's all wood. anyone have any ideas?

    here's a side view, showing the dish. it's about a 3" dish.

    I don't know what it's from, but cool wheel. Maybe a boat?

    That'd be my guess. Unless it's REALLY early car (like teens) I doubt anyone used an all-wood wheel. Would look cool in a vintage race style car, I like it.

    that's kind of what i suspected. what do you guys think about running an all wood wheel? any reason why i shouldn't fab up a hub and run it on the street? that's the plan unless there's a good reason not to.
