Wheel Vintiques' new 15" by 4" by 4" BC

My 69' Dart custom has 13" wheels all the way around. Never saw this before, and is stock as far as I know. And they run 187/70R13s on them. Doubt the symmetry would be worth much running these on the front and a tall tire on a 15X10 wheel on the rear

You wouldn't want to run 13" wheels in front with big-uns in the rear, just would not look right. When drag racing, a taller front tire adds to the roll-out distance before the red light turns on.

The standard a-body 14" wheel was 14 x 4-1/2" wide. (the 13's were 4-1/2" wide too) You had to get the "S" suspension, or GTS, or HD supension w/ sway bar to get the "wide" 14 x 5-1/2" wheels.

It may be possible to use the more common 14 x 4-1/2" wide SBP wheels as cores to get wider wheels made at a wheel shop. I think they usually separate the centers and then weld them to a different size outer rim to get the custom SBP wheels, even 15" diameter.
