    I need to find a web site that makes stock rims for my 75 mav. I found sometime ago and now I can't find it. Anyone know of a site.

    Wheel Vintiques makes (and re-makes) a lot of older style wheels, especially custom sizes and offsets. They do have stock type wheels and the styled ones, too. You can buy from them directly, or through various retailers (Summit, Jegs, etc.)

    They made the rear rims for my Comet ... 15x8.5 Magnums. :thumbs2: The biggest stock Magnums from Ford were 15x7 and are hoarded by Mustang guys. The wider ones allowed me to jump up to 265s.

    If you are looking at all four wheels, you may want to move up to 15 inchers. Better tire choices out there ... 14 inch tires are getting harder to find ... food for thought.
