1940's Indian Wheels

[motor-officer]

Can anybody tell me what company made the wheels for Indian during the 1940's? I recently picked up 3 wheels. Stamped on the inside of each rim is Kelsey-Hayes, 16.0 x 3.00, and some other type emblem. They have the large spoke nipple holes that I believe Indian used(?). Thanks.

How many spoke holes in the rim?

Kelsey-Hayes was the supplier for Indian, 40 holes per rim, and large nipples. Sport Scout would have different angled holes in the rim due to the laced in brake drum.

There are 40 holes. Thanks.
