Default Keystone Classic Mags ( 15" x 4" )

I picked up a pair of Keystone Classic Mags
that are ( 15" X 4" ) and was told that they were purchased from a guy that used to live in North Carolina and has now moved to Virginia.....
and he had bought these years ago from Ronnie Sox
.... ( Which I cannot prove....but neat &quot;story&quot; ) [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
...........................
What my questions are ...
When did they quit making this size Keystone Classic Mag wheel?
........and
....Is there anywhere on the wheel that shows any date?

pics may help, and I typically use the center cap to quickly gauge the approx date of manufacture.

These are the early center cap wheels and the valve stem on early ones also were in the face like on a Cragar. Mid 1970's seems to be the point where the wheels got the valve stem between the spokes.

I believe the earlier ones, like 1965~1967/8 had a more silver painted area and the later ones used black paint. I would guess these to be 1970. I want a set, but don't own any yet. You said a date code is no obvious?

Thanks for the 3rd pic. Looks like you got some 1968.5 vintage wheels. Nice!
