Default Ford 12 slotter id

Hi all,

I'm looking at buying some second hand 12 slotters and just wanted to confirm if they're original XW or XA/XB or not ?
They're all 14x6, has the 3 dimples for the caps, have ROH and ford stamped on them, but unsure whether they're riveted or spot welded, and also haven't confirmed with them if they're small or big centres.
Any info would be great thanks.
I hope pics are clear enough otherwise i'll try again tomorrow
Cheers

Definitely spot welded, there’s possibly a date stamped inside the hoop.

Those wheels were made by ROH, it's written on them. They are NOT the original ones. The Original ones were American and the Part Number was C8ZZ1007A from a 68 Mustang, the later ones were part number XB1007A and made here. These were used on XA/XB.
