Will type 57 wheels fit on a type V63, or 1918/ 1924, or 35"/ 33"???

I am building a 1924 speedster and I am contemplating the benefits of taller wheels 35's over the 33's the type V63 comes with. ???

Has anyone ever tried to mount the old type 57's onto a type V63 spindle?

Are they the same or are they completely different.

Thanks Gene, that worked.
A member told me his 1918 came with 1923 wheels on it so, I guess I will give it a try this weekend!
I am counting on the hubs being the same.
I am attempting to accomplish lower RPM's at a higher (freeway) speeds so that I don't get run off the road.
And, I like the look of the larger wheels and tires for the speedster.
