All great old information here. I have 205/70/14's on 5.5" rallyes on my '65 Barracuda but they are kinda skinny and tall. Next time I buy tires I am thinking 215/60/14 or 225/60/14 on the same 5.5" rallyes. Maybe the wider for the back as I have fast ratio manual steering (16:1). I have...
My buddy has the turbine ones on his '69 Valiant, they were on the car when we bought it. No, they are not K-car metric ones that someone pointed out to me at some point. They're all cleaned up now, I'll have to take a photo...they look amazing all cleaned and clearcoated.

Not selling the rallye wheels with that, just the trim rings and centers?
I've seen show quality centers for $200/4 or nice driver ones for $20-30 each. Same for the trim rings if they're not all beat up.
I keep one of those mini spares from a late model Dodge Minivan as my spare tire in my trunk. It's small and light and allows me to shove booster cables and other stuff in around the spare. I have a scissor type jack from an anonymous car as well.
Because my trunk is so small, every little...
Check out these wheels. They are small bolt pattern and called Hustlers. They're from Australia. I bet they'd be cheaper to ship here than those above!

I don't know about your car specifically, but here's some info on how to measure offset.

Zero Offset
The hub mounting surface is even with the...
