Got these with a wreck that I recently aquired and haven't seen them before.
They are old holden stud pattern with no identification that I can find  :-\

They look like a Morton & May Wheel from the 60's should be 6" wide ......FC427.......
As I lay rubber down the street I pray for traction I can keep, but if I spin and begin to slide please dear god protect my ride

Thanks for that, do you know much about them? I noticed from Google that their business is still running.

They used to be at 24 English Street Camperdown... Think they started around 1965 ??? and were at this address till late 70's ??? They use to widen [with a band] if you wanted wider than 6" wheels ,repair and chroming also ...Think they then moved over Padstow way ??? ??? ??? and are now at Liverpool still doing wheels repairs and making wheels for  Road & Track they had a few different styles I remember all pressed steel ...The wheel you have is The First Release  one piece rim from Morton & May...... circa .. June 1968 ...Tasman also offered pressed steel wheels in there own design at this time also as well as the Tasman Mag . ....FC427......
