I am in the process of painting my rear rims after getting them sandblasted I was surprised to see "Firestone" marked on the inside. I didn't know they made these rims?? Ryan

I think Firestone purchased Electric Wheel in the 1950's and they made a bunch of rims for A-C.  So not totally surprised by this discovery.  Thanks for sharing it though!
