Hi guys I was digging through some of my stuff, I found a couple wheels with a (H) stamped in center and a pentastar by the valve stem, 4 center cap bumps, what else do I need to find on the wheel?

The H would be about 5/8" tall and the wheel would only have 3 cap bumps like these

H wheels

The "indented dimple" on the inner part of each hub cap mount is also unique to the A12 wheels..... The presence of the bumps lead me to believe that the hubcap delete came along after the wheels were designed.... to my knowledge they were not used in any aplication other then the A12.​

The only non dimpled wheels Ive seen in person or on the net have been copies or they fall into the wrong years, the A-12 had the same wheel as Hemi cars with hubcap bumps and dimples. The date code is what the A-12 guys are after let alone finding an H-wheel. Sound like we are on the same page?

That makes more sense then a special wheel for a very limited production of cars. I think some C-body station wagons may have been equipped with these wheels also.

Yes they were but as stated the A12 people are looking for a certain "window" of dates to be correct for their cars regardless of what they came off of.
 
I was doing some more digging and found 2 more wheels with the 3 bumps in the center, but I didnt see and numbers on the wheels,
 
Here are the wheels they measure 15x6 but they say 5.5 sorry,
What would a 14x7 stamped steel wheel fit? Not the wheel on the left that is a 15x5
