    Are those 14" or 15"?

    14" is by far the most common.:(
    I like them in 15" myself.

    No matter though, good score either way!

    as long as there are no real deep scores they will look brand new after a a good polish.....

    I like those wheels toyed around with 17 inch ansen sprints for my car but caliper clearance was an issue......

    Ford used to make them in 15 inch for their 78/79 era shortbed stepside pickup trucks, but those had a large center hole

    If for a truck, they would have the larger bolt pattern also.
