I know Ford didn't produce styled steel wheels for the 65-66 6-cyls. in the 4-lug pattern (I really wish they did). Do you know anything more about these wheels? Were they used on a 6-cyl. Mustang? Do you know the measurement of the bolt pattern or backspacing? I believe it should be 4X4 1/2. Sorry to answer your question with more questions, but I'm curious myself. If they were used on a 6-cyl Mustang, perhaps they're old 70's Datsun Z wheels? I do know that they had the same bolt pattern as the 65-66 6-cyls. If you had 4, I'd consider buying them for my 6 if the bolt pattern and back spacing were correct.

Good luck!

Those look like the Predator Mustang wheels and if they are, they're worth more than others would think.

They look like mini-lite knock offs from Shelby. The mini-lites were used extensively in sports car racing from Mini-Coopers to Boss302s. Cool rims.

Hello. Aren't those the wheels for one of those 80s Shelby Dodges?
