1964 Ford Galaxie Rims Wheels Needed

The last thing needed for us to finish our 3-year long resto project is wheels, rims. We have a 1963-1/2 galaxie 427, 425hp all factory original, black color. We've been unsuccessfull in locating the right wheels.

I am looking for a full set; this includes (2) front, and (2) rear.

All high performance Galaxies for 1963, and 1964 came with special 15 inch steel wheels, as opposed to the standard 14 inch wheels. Within that change, I believe the offset on the front wheels is a bit different than the rear. Please reply if you know where I can find a set. Thanks!

Kelsey Hayes with flame cut vents and blow-out rings. Anybody that I know who has them would never sell them. I dont believe the off-set was different between front and rear. I think the Nascar rims were different back space and width.

Why not use these until you can find the correct wheels. At least they will get you on the road.

Thanks for the prompt replies all! I took a look at the link you sent, and these may work. We're measuring today, and will let you know. We found some 15" wheels like these and they rub the exhaust in the back, and touch in front when making a hard turn. The offset is incorrect on them. Thanks again for the responses guys.
