Title: 14x7 Road wheels??
Post by: AKcharger on January 04, 2021, 01:03:18 PM
I discovered my latest car had 2 14x7 road wheels, I never knew they existed, I've only seen the 14x5.5? anyone have info on them? I tried to figure out the date codes but i'm not real smart in that department.

Thx

Ford used 14x7.0" MAGNUM 500s - got pics of the date codes?

it is a 1974-'75 FoMoCo wheel (Ford used the MAGNUM 500 name under license from Motor Wheel Corp, Chrysler did not)

here's one on eBay - notice where the Ford oval is stamped on the wheel lip & see if you can locate it on yours
