Here is a early set of Cragar SS 15 X 4 rims

This is how I would describe the rim in the link
Direct bolt
Round spoke
Round spoke with narrow outer rim
No bead lock



Differences to look for:
Center section differences
Round spoke with a wide outer rim
Round spoke with a narrow outer rim

Direct bolt
uni-lug

Bead locks
No bead locks

Todays wheels have :

Uni-lug
or
Direct bolt acorn nut

Flat spoke center
Flat spoke center narrow outer rim

I think there might be differences in the rim itself

I would recommend doing a thread search on the forum, there has been some very good and detailed threads on this topic.
