RE: [Chrysler300] Re 14 inch wheels for 1960 chrysler

I think I followed most of this thread but don’t recall seeing a summary of which Chryslers what wheels came on in 1964.  So, here is a summary from the 1964 Service Technical Manual—complete with a couple of likely errors*.

ITEM	NEWPORTs	300’s	300K-HI-PERF’s	NEW YORKER’s	SALON’s	IMPERIAL’s
WHEELS	14x5-1/2K	14x6K	15x6K*	14x6K	14x6-1/2K	15x6L
SPECIAL	14x6K	N.A.		N.A.	N.A.	N.A.
T&C	14x6K	--		14x6-1/2K	--	--
STUD HOLD                CIRCLE	4-1/2”	4-1/2”	4-1/2”	4-1/2”	4-1/4”*     (4-1/2”)	5-1/2”
TIRES	8.00x14	8.00x14	7.60x15*	8.50x14	9.00x14	8.20x15
SPECIAL	8.50x14	8.50x14	(1963 J size)	9.00x14	N.A.	--

 

I understand the 300K “High Performance” cars came with 8.50x14’s on 14x5 ½” wheels, not 15”.

 

So, look for wider wheels on NY’s, Salons, and NY T&C’s.

 

I never heard of the term Stud Hold Circle but perhaps that is the proper term for Bolt Circle.

Murray Park has the 14 x 6 ½” wheels in stock as I just spoke to him about them.

  I have one Chrysler wheel, but it is 14' x 6" and not 14" x 6 1/2".

A few days ago someone posted a want listing for 14 inch steel wheels for 1960 chrysler.

My friend Scott Dejka called me this evening and said that he had either 2 or 3 or those steel wheels. For some unknown reason, he is not able to post on this site.

His email info is: inyourjs@xxxxxxxxxxx

His phone number is 509885-5587

Cheers from Fern in SE BC where it's very warm today
