Wheel measurements
Have an old set of 15" of Fuchs. When I measure widths from edge to edge, I come up with an extra 1/2" (7.5 and 8.5). What is the correct size? BTW since buying Alf's Polished 16s these are for sale. What are they worth?

The correct way to measure a wheel is the inside bead seat to bead seat. Check out this pic of a 7" wheel:

Am I correct in assuming these are 15x7 and 15x8? Thanks for the input.

Probably. If you look carefully at the backside of the paddles, the size will be stamped into the wheel.
