Technical 51 mercury bolt pattern wheel options

Is a 1951 Mercury Monterey 2 door coupe have a 5 x 4.5 or 5 x 5.5 bolt pattern? Also any recommendations for wheels? And size? Ill be putting Firestone bias plys white walls for sure. Not sure if ill go with hub caps or what but looking for ideas.

 

5 x 5.5

Factory wheel size on the Mercury was 15x5.5", the Baby Lincolns had 15x6". So if you are looking to stay with an OE look then you should be fine in that size range.

 

do you know what the bolt pattern is?

 

DUH!!!!

 

5 on 5 1/2 bolt pattern

 

Thanks

 

I went with 710s on my 50

Same bolt pattern as'40-'48 Ford, same pattern that Ford pickups used for 50 years.
