    I just took the tires off my solid wheels that came off my trailer. I found this page on solid wheels; problem is, my wheels aren't any of the ones he has listed

    http://www.rensjeep.com/rim/wheelid.html

    According to this guy, there are:

    civy 4.5" ones with a sloped and square shoulder dated '45-'46
    military 4" ones with 2 squared shoulders dated early '41-'42
    &
    military 4.5" ones with 2 squared shoulders (dated not stated)

    I've got a 4.5" ones with 2 squared shoulders dated 1946. Could this be like finding another color for the Renegade 1's?

    Picture of face and back of wheel, please?? and of the inner profile too....This is the second one of these I have heard of lately. (Did you know there are some foreign manufacture rims around as well that look solid but are not the coveted ones..)

    Here you go. These are the real deal mcgill. When I took them off the trailer, before I sandblasted them, they still had the original Bantam "turquoise" color behind the hub. They are stamped:

    16x4.50
    1 46
