    1963 4 lug fairlane. Where can I get ahold of some 15" steelies with this bolt pattern? All I can find are 14"s which of course I already have.

    I'm not sure anybody makes a 15" in a 4 lug .... don't think I've ever seen 'em.
    Hmmmm......
     
  3. How about the late 70's- mid 80's fox bodies Ford cars? Did they have a similar bolt pattern?

    Me too, hmmmm. Mine does anyway. I thought only Falcons and 6 cyl Stangs were 4 luggers.

    The later Fords have 41/4 bolt pattern and the earlly one are 4 1/2 inch bolts pattern. I went and tried to find the same thing when I had four lug up front and they were never produced from the factory and none of the aftermarkets could produce a steel wheel with that pattern. I had a set of old 15 inch Centerlines that were fot the 4 on 4 1/2 pattern but that was the best I could find.

    Either way, Fords 4 lug was 4 on 4 1/2 ....

    Same as alot of Toyota, Nissan, Other smaller cars... 15" may be tough to get as a stock wheel without having the made up.. ask WHEELKID or look into some Chrome steel wheels.

    Also, If you have a single stock wheel off the car 14" 4 lug, contact KIWIKEV He needs a single for his daughters Comet

    Actually your right. I pulled the hubcaps off today and theyre 5 lug. I just picked the car up on Sunday and thought I had read that fairlanes are 4 lug. Move along, nothing to see here. :D
