    40 Ford Wheel Question

    QUESTION

    is there a 15 steel wheel that will fit on the 40 ford stud pattern? also what size wheels come as standard on a 40 ford (front) cheers
    ------------------------------------------------

    ANSWERS

    Should be 5 on 51/2 pcd - same as Ford pickups up to very recently and most earlier Jeeps.

    ------------------------------------------------

    40 ford wheels are 16*4 with the pcd as advise by ddooce above.

    F100 pickups up to about 62 or so (I'm a bit shakey on this) have a wheel that is like a 15" version of the 40's 16 X 4" wheel. the hubcaps fit to internal nubs.
    Mercs and I think later pickups have similar wheels but they have bigger hubcaps on external nubs. Later still pickups have a (in my opinion) slightly less attractive wheel with bigger windows around the centre.
    You can buy 15" versions of the 16" trim rings too.
    I have a set of f100 15" wheels, with 40's caps and 15" trim rings on my 40 and they look great.
