If you have the  original 8 inch kitfox rims then they are Douglas wheels 

6061 aluminum  wheels welded together in the middle . Blue lable .125 

thick  .



 The rims are definitely steel and are supplied in  the Kit. Tony that built my plane built two. The first he forced landed in tiger  country due to Auminium wing tanks splitting in flight. He then threatened to  sue the factory and I'm told they gave him a new kit but I'm not sure if it was  a complete Kit or partial kit. So the wheels may have been supplied with the  first kit or second I don't know but I do know they were supplied by the  factory. This has come up before and it appears that yes there were aluminium  wheels but there were also the steel wheels.
