I'm trying to find a source for chrome 15" "OE" vented style Ford (5 X 4 1/2) wheels with stock centers, to allow using spiders. All I've found so far use a multi-drilled center that needs a cap/cover, or a "smoothie" center without the OE vents. Would appreciate any help. Thanks.
Wheel vintiques has the OE ford chrome wheels (64 series) http://www.wheelvintiques.com/index.php/o-e-chevy-ford-chrome.html those have stock centers, not dual pattern
Summit racing ,go into wheels and search OE Chrome and I believe its series 64 many different back spacing and widths just keep scrolling
Oh boy! For some reason I thought they quit making the 64 series. My bad! I think the "style" picture showing a moon cap threw me, (possibly covering the multi-pattern) but when I opened the full web catalog, the bare OE wheel is pictured, along with many back space options. Thanks again!
Rally America also has what you are looking for. I ordered a set of four of the exact wheel you are looking for and was very happy with their product. This was in 2007 or 2008. They were 15x7 - used a factory center in a new 7" rim. They had both pieces chromed, then ***embled them. They don't list everything on their website, but I'm sure they can build what you need, in the width and backspacing that you want - built to order. They are also an Alliance Vendor. 10% off. http://www.rallyamerica.com/Rally_America_Home__BIJ5.php Malcolm
Rally America's page for OE-style wheels says made from billet aluminum - ? Malcolm, did you get your wheels in steel? ***ume they were for the '62 Galaxie?
They were chrome steel wheels, original Ford centers. Yes, for the Galaxie. Their old website had a lot more content, stuff I imagine (and hope) they still offer.
I thought I read a post on the HAMB recently that they had a fire, and do not build anymore steel wheels at this time. Their web site shows billet aluminum OE, not steel. I did, however, contact them and will follow up.
JFYI, Rally America responded to my question; they no longer make chrome OE wheels. 100% Matt, Wheelsmith does not offer a vented OE wheel with a single bolt pattern.
