    Some Kelsey Hayes wheels I've seen have a K-H stamped into the steel between the lug nuts.

    Do the 15 x 8 Renegade 1 deep wheels have any kind of identifying marks stamped into them?

    Not on the outside, at least mine don't. They are easy to identify, though, as they are unique as far as steel wheels go.
    They do have KH stamped on the circumference IIRC.

    Thanks Patrick, I saw the pictures of yours when I was searching (very nice!) and have saved one of the close ups for reference.

    If I remember correctly (I just sold a set for a friend) they have a manufacture stamp on the outside of the wheel between 2 lugnut holes. His had something like K1 over another 1. Which had to do with the plant manufactured at and the year or something like that. We researched it when putting them up for sale, but I forget now. Anybody??

    Okay, the ones I looked at had something like that between two lugnuts. It looked like this: K 1 1 Only, instead of 1's, there were two vertical lines, like the sides of an H that were not joined. Sorry, no pic.

    When I took the tires off mine I found the same stickers as the one Zoomer posted above. Since your sticker looks more detailed, I'm guessing it's a later version.
