    Anyone have any idea for some junkyard wheels I could look for that would run 15x7 or 8 and still fit the original dog dish hubcaps for a 73? I thought about getting my stock wheels widened but they'd still only be 14s.

    A good wheel shop can widen stock steel wheels. There's a place in denver that does it all the time. True Design Wheel

    What I'm looking for is a full matching set of steelies that will take the dog dish hubcaps. That means they have to have the 3 nubs around the outside. Currently I have 5 matching 72.5 steelies that don't fit disc brakes, 2 early 80s steelies, and 3 late 70s that I think.. I would trade all of them for just one good set of 5 steelies from a 75-79 that all match :)

    Or... I would take a set of crown vic wheels if someone is giving them away. :D Anyone have pics of those on a lux? Seems like they'd be pretty awesome though they are 16x7 with +6 offset.
