What hole pattern Steve? And nipple diameter?
Thanks

[Steve Swan]

Robbie, the diameter of the holes in the rim is 0.2635" measuring the shank of a 17/64" drill that is tight in the holes i tried slipping the shank end into; some holes,the shank will not enter. The number of holes for spokes in the rim is 36; i didn't think to give that vital piece of information... Re: hole pattern, the first hole ahead of the valve stem hole is on the left or the first hole behind the valve stem hole is on the right. I would appreciate if you tell me what i have. Thanks for your questions!

Virtually all of the Kelsey Hayes 36 hole rims are for the lightweight series, 125/165. They used 19" wheels for several years with the 18" introduced later. I can look at some rims, I have a few around here.

Thanks, Robbie. Lightweight makes sense being 36 holes, so for the earlier Hummer's then? You know, here's what's crazy. I received that rim back with Z1 parts i'd had plated for a restoration for a customer. I told the plater i did not end him that rim and that i had rec'd the front and rear DID's i'd sent him, he swore he was positive i sent it to him and said he had no other customers he'd done plating work on rims... I can't EVER remember owning anything with K-H rims and have never owned a Hummer... Now that i know the rim is for an earlier lightweight, i've got a young buddy who has an early 50's Hummer he's bringing back to life, maybe he can use it...
