two demountable wheels professionally restored, never used.

Wheels were professionally restored. I bought them at Hershey for $150 a piece. I also bought the bolts that go with them.
Never used the wheels or bolts.

Excellent condition.

$325 for the set with bolts.

I can bring them to Hershey on Thursday

Those look like Kelsey loose lug wheels, more commonly used on Canadian cars. The wheel bolts are Ok but they require loose lugs and flanged nuts to fit the rims, which have no lugs fitted.

Thank you Allan. I hope whomever buys them has your knowledge because to me they are just demountable! Thanks!

Robert, fixed lug rims, other than Hayes, will bolt up to them, BUT fixed lug rims will not wedge on the narrower inside edge of the felloe. This means all the drive must be taken by the four rim bolts/nuts. Not the best solution.

Howdy. I would like more information on these wheels, as I just so happen to have a Canadian TT where the fronts need replacing. Ultimately they would have to be shipped to northern CA. Thanks!
