Default 15"x5" riveted and welded wheel

I've got two riveted and two welded wheels size 15 x 5 that I've had for 40 year and look really good. They are GM and are stamped accordingly. I bought them for my 63 years back from a "Corvette" guru. Are these C1 wheels. I get that idea from doing the "search"

They could be. Passenger wheels and vette wheels were not exactly the same, so we need pictures.

OK, we finally found the camera and have promised pictures. I'll focus on two and they are paired, ie two welded and two riveted. Two are KH stamped, both are GM stamped. They are 5 x 15 and fit the 63 bolt pattern.

Looks like the two on the right are corvette and the other two are passenger wheels.
