Anyone Know the B45 Simmons Wheel?

Hi,

I am looking to see if anyone knows these wheels? They are the B45 Simmons wheel. I am looking at a set that are for sale. They wouls be similar to the ones in the picture?

....yes I know about the shortage of 16 inch rubber. They would be for track use.

Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the reply. I take it that they are not Forged? They are made of steel?

Forged center ( i think could have been cast) , spun wheel halves... they were just heavy compared to other wheels from that era.

How heavy compared to 16x9 Fuchs? I know that is not a an apples to apples question. I havenot gone to see the wheels yet, so I am not sure how heavy they are.
