I don't think it's from a Model T because I think they all had a tranverse single leaf spring on the front. Model A then went to wire spoke wheels. These are the old 'Artillery style' wheels which would make them from the 20's or earlier.
They're obviously heavy duty spokes, and given the spring set-up and lack of brakes I'm wondering if it may be from an early truck. Are they definitely Ford? Russ. |

Thanks Russ, on further inspection with a wire brush found Fiat on the axle caps. So no not a Ford

Something like this Fiat from the early 20's perhaps:

I'd say so. No front brakes would mean it's an early 20s Fiat from the Google search I did. It seems Fiats had front brakes from the mid 1920s.
