The 3 clip rims are the correct ones. If you ever pull the tires they will be dated on the inside. The 6 clip in 15 inch is early to mid 50s from what I see. I have that exact rim on my 59 but its a 3 clip also. These 60 and up 15s I think are all 5 1/2 wide between the beads and that will be stamped by the date. These white rims are the ones on my 60 GMC 1/2 ton. These do not have the nubs on the outer edge.
