Thread: 61-63 Special 13" Dogdish Hubcaps with 14" Steel Wheels?

    61-63 Special 13" Dogdish Hubcaps with 14" Steel Wheels?

    I'm looking for some 13" tires (with 1" whitewall) for my '63 Special (with no luck - besides Diamondback). I would move up to a 14" stock steel rim for more tire choices, but I want to keep/use my stock dogdish hubcaps.

    Does anyone know of a compatible 14" steel wheel that will accept the 13" hubcap?

    Thanks!

    Look at 6 cyl Falcons, Comets, Mustangs (not Mustang II) and Mavericks from the 60s and 70s. These have the same 4 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern as the Special and some of them were definitely made in 14". I don't know if the hubcaps will fit. You will have to try that for yourself.

    In addition, I found this list of newer cars, for which the wheels will probably be easier to find. No clue on the hubcap nubs though. Just be sure to take a hubcap with you when you go salvage yard hunting.

    4 1/2 in. or 114.3mm.
