14x4.5 or 14x5.5. ? Photos of condition would seem to be in order.

i'll assume we're talking about steelies here...
13's aren't really worth anything unless you find somebody running the really early stuff that needs them and even then they're not gonna want to pay anything for them.
14's are a little better because there's still people out there running around on them, but nobody want to pay dick for 'em. i can generally sell those for about 20~25 a clip. supposedly the 5.5" ones are sought after.
at a recent swap i didn't sell the bare 5.5's i had or the standards with brand new tires. so i guess price them accordingly?

Mainly the 5.5 wide 14's were standard on 340 A body cars that weren't ordered with rally wheels.
Not only 340, but 383 and 440 A body's
I can't find a size or part #, but, measuring them I feel they are 5.5 wide. I'm going to figure the 13" wheel to have no value and use it as a base for my "portable" bench grinder stand. Currently it's mounted to my "bench" and is taking up space, not to mention that it throws debris everywhere while I'm using it. Mounted on a stand, I can move it around out of the way when not in use and free up some bench space and minimize flying debris in the process.
Thanks

If you are selling these, post a picture with an ad in the for sale forum. Hopefully they don't have tires on them so a measurement can be seen clearly.

sometimes the rims are stamped at or near the valvestem. all the 5.5's i've seen have a "55" on the lip there.
obviously it's stamped on the inside of the rim, like so:

67 down it's inside the wheel, 68 up it's on the outside by the valve stem. Give or take!

it's mopar, there's always that: ehhh... more or less
but eyeballing the two sets i have here that tracks.
The back spacing on 5.5 is about 3.5"
And the wheel is 6.5 outside to outside.
Just measured!
68 up note the 55 to the right of the valve stem

One picture of the front of the wheel and I can tell you the width. I run 14x5,5 on a couple of my cars, and I use a 13” rim and tire as a spare in my 66 Cuda, because I don’t have the gold down divider with the cut out for a 14” rim and tire. I typically sell the 5,5” steelies for $50 a piece.
