the sears kit should have steel rear wheels, IIRC around 5’ in diameter on the back. Fronts could be original A wire spokes, or possibly a farmerazation for wood, or it could have the all steel wheel made for the kit-20 some inches IIRC. (I may have the only 1:87 model of a Model A with the Sears/wards kit hence why I measured the wheels). My dad has a Ford model A with the Sears/wards kit (made by Peru wheel and iron works, of Peru Ill) and his has the 4 Peru steel wheels. All that aside, other things to consider if it’s an Model A Sears/wards kit: front wheels, rear cleats, and is the pinion and bull gear in good shape, and the Peru rear hub caps. Saw one in Connecticut, only a Chevy chassis, reportedly drivable for $800 in 2016, and rubber front tires.
