"HF" vs. "XE" Wheels
I have some "HF" and some "XE" wheels.
Can't really see what the physical difference is between the two.
Both are 14" x 6" and offset looks the same.
Does anyone know the difference?

Both have the profile of a disc brake wheel.
I think the "HF" wheels were originally on a '67 Cutlass disc brake car.
A Chevelle site shows the "XE" wheel came on 1968 Chevelles.
Couldn't find anything else about an Olds application.
Two "XE" were stamped "MADE IN USA" N19 with "NT"near a lug hole.
Three "XE" were stamped "KELSEY CANADA" N14X6JJ, AL, 5 ? P12, K20.
One "XE" was stamped "KELSEY CANADA" D14X6JJ, AL, 2 ? 26T, K20.
The "K20" were in a triangular arrangement with "K 2" side by side and"0" centered below.
Question mark (?) represents some kind of symbol.
"HF" wheels had no stamping on inside of wheel, only at the valve stem.
One "HF" was stamped"K19 6".
One "HF" was stamped"M17 3".
One "HF" was stamped"M17 2", "20R".

K 20 is Kelsey, plant #2, 1970
K 19 is Kelsey, plant #1, 1969
M 17 is Motor Wheel, plant #1, 1967.
If there are other numbers on each side of valve stem they are the month and day of the year.
