I've never purchased any for my own use but have seen them of quite a few cars - by all reports the quality is excellent but I've also heard they are no longer available from Kanters. I believe the earliest of the Kanter repro wheels didn't accept the factory hub cap and came with their own special cap, nominally the same as the factory cap but sized slightly differently. If I'm wrong on this someone will correct me.

Their 2009 advertisement for says they are available in a 15x5" rim that fits the 120 from 1935 to 1939, the 110 from 1937-1939, all 1940 to 1956 models though the 1940 - 1941 Six and the 1954 - 1956 Clipper require a inner tube and are lip-laced. They are also available in 15x6" for senior models.

For information about the rim sizes and what they fit, probably best to go directly to the source, an email directly to Kanters should give you all the information you need.
