cool57 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 eBay seller says these will fit first gen. Mine is 63, even after reading the wheel tech tips on the ROA website I am still not sure, (call me dumb, it won't be the first time). Any definitive answers?

RivNut Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 They'll fit, but they won't look right (in my opinion.) The wheels for the 71 - 78 cars have a different profile than those for the 65 - 70 cars. They all have the 5 on 5" bolt circle and are 6" wide. IMHO, these wheels also seem pretty high priced compared to others I've seen. To mount a wheel on a 63 or 64, you'll have to remove the register ring from the inside of certains wheels. The 63 / 64 hub has a larger diameter than the diameter of the register ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
