Cranky · Nov 15, 2017

Had these things for a long time but do not remember where I got them. They've been doing duty on a heavy duty home made yard cart. The numbers on one of them goes like this. On the left side of the valve stem K23....5 then on the right of the stem is 13....675

Verry interesting, those small holes look like made for 5/16” screws to hold on a ‘center cover’ that just covers lugnut area. Chrys/ Ford bolt spacing?

Ferd wheels have a smaller center register.....won't fit onto Mopar hubs.

LOL, I think it’s the other way ‘crank’ , Ferds fit Mopar. At least they used to(or the dementia is really getting bad!)

those are late '70's maybe early '80's. I think they were on diplomats and stuff like that.

Nope....Ferds of the 60's/early 70's didn't fit Mopars. Bolt pattern is the same but the center hole is smaller on the Ferd. I'm positive on that because I've had to cut out the center hole to make them fit on a Mopar.

Mercury and Lincolns had larger centers that fit Chryslers. Ford's did not.

those are lebaron/diplomat 15x7's. the little holes are for screws that retain the center piece of the 2 piece spoke wheel covers .

And I thought they were something from an older station wagon maybe......

Mopar used a 2 3/4" center register. That's what I use to weed through the steel wheel pile at the yards. Don't know what Ford used.

Not sure about what the bigger Fords used but the mid 60's Mustangs had a smaller register than Dodge and Plymouth but had the same bolt pattern.

Thats what I'm useing on the front of my '62 (don't tell anyone)
Cheaper than the originals to buy. Only thing is they are 9" hub caps not 10" but I don't plan on useing any.

Forgot to add, one is a '86 and the other is a '87
