If
you are desperately searching for a match to your
wheels like this here's
one...There
were many types of these. This is one. It has damage
to it's edge. Chrome has rust as is shown. Just an old
wheel to restore. Typically these are all in fair to
poor condition and would need work to be
presentable/serviceable. Estimate packing and delivery
to be $24-$30.
These aren't wire or are they magnesium..."wiremag"
was a name for a style I think originated by American
Racing Wheels.This type has an alloy center and a
steel outer rim. There is a nice bend to its edge.
Lots of rust. See the closeup of the wheel. (Click to

Does
not include lug nuts or lug nut washers. It is a 14 x
5 inch wheel. Offset on ths wheel is about 3mm
positive. Lug holes are about 11/16 in
diameter.
The
65-67 cars originally came with a 5.60-14 tire on a 4
inch wide wheel. The 67.5-70 cars had a 4.5 inch wheel
with a 5.60-14 tire (145-14) or in some cases a
6.45-14 tire (165-14).
Each
brand and size of tire are typically designed to fit 3
rim widths; one optimum size and a size on each side
that are "OK". Check with your tire supplier. You may
find tire to car body contact problems when you mount
custom wheels on a car. It will depend on the wheel,
the tire, and how your car is sitting on its
suspension.. Typically the more "dish" (negative
offset) the wheel has when you look at it the worse
the situation is. In some cases I've seen people add a
bit of clearance by trimming the inside of the rear
fender lip. The above wheels were on a stock roadster;
HOWEVER
IT IS YOUR COST AND RISK
when going to a custom wheel that it will work to your
satisfaction.
There
is a tremendous variety of wheels that list they "fit"
the roadster. Many don't; they just share the same
bolt pattern. At least these were actually ON a
roadster!
