    I have a 65 Chrysler that I am doing a Scarebird drum to disk swap on. The kit calls for 70-72 Ford Galaxie Rotors. The swap will not take the 14 inch wheels that were on the car. I bought Explorer wheels, but the hub on the rotor will not let the wheel fit snugly against the rotor. Any ideas what 15 inch wheel will work with my 70-72 Ford Galaxie rotors and the 65 Chrysler New Yorker drums?

    I don't remember a full size Ford having 14 inch wheels . Normally hub size is near the same on Ford 14 and 15 inch wheels , just larger to fit over larger brakes .

    How about '70/'71 Ford wheels? They are 15" and obviously we're used with those same rotors.

    15" steel wheels off of a mid '90s Crown Vic/ Grand Marquis might fit, if you can find some.
