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?

AKcharger

Nope these are road wheels. Here...
Date codes and the 7 with a 5.5

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

I coulnd't find the ford stamp but I'm satisfied they're ford. Thanks!

are the spokes on the 14x7.0" wheels satin chrome or painted?

I tried to clean them with acitone...looks like paint, so that would be a diffrence
