you need to replace the 5-lug hubs with Splined hubs and their hardware, and you need the wire wheels with the spinners of course.

a simpler solution is to keep the original hubs and install modern 5-lug wire wheels.

Wire wheels that bolt on to the existing 5-stud hubs. It's a straight swap with no modifications needed. Its the modern way of having wire wheels, but they don't look quite so nice, as you have no lovely knock-on "spinners" in the middle ! Much cheaper, though !!
