aren't they just standard white spoke truck rims painted green?

Looks like an old Western truck wheel to me, too... They were usually white with a red & a blue stripe around to outside of the bead seat area.

They look like old Western truck wheels painted green, except the Western wheels had holes punched in the center and were welded 360 degrees. Unless my eyes are playing tricks on me, it looks like the only contact with the rim is the spokes.
If that is true, you got me on this one. I can't identify them.Bill Harvey

I looked them up, and would have to agree. They look like Jackman wheels.
Good call Sean.Bill Harvey

They look like Jackman wheels. They were very popular in the 1970's. So much, in fact, Jeep sort of copied the design. As far as I know , Jackman was the only one that welded each spoke individually.
