If it was an American Racing, it would be cast in script on the rear bead, very noticable......chances are, based on the valve stem location, front bead, ....you have an early to mid 60's Ansen Eliminator rim, probally a 14"- 15X6.... the 15X7 and wider rims, had the valve stem relocated to the bead face
Although the more I look at your rim, is it a 14"?......possibly a front runner 14/15X 4.5"?.....measurement would help?.....

Looks like a pair of 'Rocket' wheels that I have. Must be circa 1968 or so IIRC.

Did a bit more cleaning. They are Keystones. The "K" mark was down in a recess on the back of the aluminum center.15 by 5.5 with 3.25 backspacing. Anyone know what they were called? Thanks for all the help.
