Trying to start a build of a 79 Gmc brigadier dump truck was looking for some wheels other than steel ovals or Alcoa . what were these wheels called. I only know them as California wheels but Google must not agree, it doesn't reveal any thing to me .

Those would be Dayton not many make them in this hobby . I caved my 1st out of brass . Starting to make a run of them when the lathe sits with nothing to do .
