Wire wheels were used on the early 28-29 AA trucks. The 30-31 trucks, which yours is, had the steel wheels.

Ford offered steel spoke wheels in 1931 also on some of the body types such as the Ambulance. These wheels have a larger bolt pattern (same as what started in 1933). So, there are unique hubs and brake drums required for these 1931 wheels. The wheels, hubs, and hub caps are very hard to find. Most dump trucks used rear dual wheels.

Below is a picture of the 1931 steel spoke wheel.
