Will someone post a pic of an H wheel, I went thru my wheels and noticed four 14"wheels with an H stamped on them.

If you are talking about H Wheels that go on an A12 car they are 15 inch.

Is there anything special about a 14 inch H wheel?

It depends on the width. A 5" wheel not so much, but a 5.5" or a 6" can be desirable.

Not really. "H" stood for Heavy Duty supposedly. As far as the 15x6" H-wheels, there were 4 different sized H's that I've seen. The A-12 cars & Hemi cars got the big H - 3 nubs, & flat bolt holes. Big-H wheels in the correct A-12 style were produced from 1968-1972. See this image.

i have pulled those exact style wheels from pickups and station wagons back in my junkyard ownership days, [1972-1984/85] when those vehicles were relatively new.
if i had known back then those wheels were special, i would have charged more for them ! [20-20 hindsight ya know. laugh2]
