Ford Model A Wheel Sizes
The Ford Model A was produced from 1928 to 1931 and had different wheel sizes depending on the year. Here are the wheel sizes for the Ford Model A:
– 1928-1929 Model A: The wheels were 21 inches in diameter and 3 inches wide. The lacing pattern of the spokes was a straight lace on top and single cross on the bottom. The center hubs of these wheels were prone to cracking from pressure from the spokes pressing inward.
– 1930-1931 Model A: The wheels were reduced to 19 inches in diameter and 3 inches wide. They also had a lacing pattern of straight spokes on top and single cross on the bottom. Similar to the earlier wheels, the center hubs of these wheels were prone to cracking.
It’s important to note that the early Ford AR wheels should not be fitted to the later 1928 Model A, as the outer skirt of the wheel center does not locate on the brake drum.
Please keep in mind that these wheel sizes are specific to the Ford Model A and may not apply to other Ford models.
I hope this information helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
