Default Source for 4 Lug Torq Thrusts and Styled Steel Wheels for 1969 Mustang 6 Cylinder?

I'm looking for a source for a 4 lug 14 x 7 Torq Thrust Classic style wheel. Can't find a 4 lug...

Also, can't find a 4 lug styled steel wheel like this:

the five-spoke based design of the Styled Steel, and the Torque Thrust, are impossible to convert to a 4-lug application. Sorry mate, 4-lug wheels are VERY limited. I think the best options for the I6 cars are gasser-type wheels, or drag wheels. Summit has a new 4-lug drag wheel out... If you want the classics, 5-lug is your only option.

No, there are several types of 4-bolt wheel available, in 14x7 and 15x7, and of course you can also get wheelcovers that look exactly like the style steel wheel you posted.

I thought it was pretty limited (I could only find 2 I am thinking...it was a while ago). You have links to them?

I know I could probably go with wheel covers...that is a last resort though. Thanks for replying!

As far as i know both rims are not made for a 4 lug.One of the imports used the same bolt pattern so you could get different wheels but be ready for sticker shock.
