I have been digging a little deeper and I may have come across something useful (at least to me) in explaining the HF vs XE wheels:
Quote:
GRP 5.803
Wheel
AR 326857 - 1973-74/ALL EXC RALLY, CUSTOM, OR HONEYCOMB - 14 X 6 PRIMED .50 OFFSET - CODE XE - DOES NOT HAVE MAXIMUM WHEEL LOAD RATING AND INFLATION PRESSURE STAMPED ON WHEEL
|
Is it possible that those "restorers" citing the XE wheel may be mistaken because hte XE was the service replacement for the HF wheels?
