did they really make these wheels in 14"... in the add the guy swears they are... roy
Fairmonts had 14" wheels from the factory. Bolt right on to a Pinto. Go for it.
i'd seen 14" steel wheels for that 4 lug but not this type of aluminum slot... were they optional on a fairmont?.. thanks. roy
The only ones that I know of that were 14" are the 73 Mustang ones but they are five lug. Mavericks had a 5 lug 14" as well. I have never seen a 14" factory 4 lug slot. I think he is wrong, they look like 13" wheels. Just my opinion.....

I have owned 2 Fairmonts. One a '78 & the other an '80. Both were equipped with 14" 4 lug wheels that had / have the same bolt pattern as the Pinto. These were steel wheels.
I do not recall if there were any slot type 'mags' available as an option in a 14" size at that time. I don't think there were.
Dick is right though; if they really are what they are said to be then you should grab them up. The pic is real fuzzy. See if you can get a clearer pic. Maybe you will be able to read the size on the tire.
I'm no expert, but I do not remember those wheels ever being offered on the Fairmont/Zephyr line. O course, I could be wrong... I don't remember what I had for dinner last night either! ::)
Dwayne :smile:
According to my '79 Fairmont and Zephyr dealer brochures that type wasn't offered, but it's possible the forged aluminum wheels weren't included. I personally never saw a Fairmont, Zephyr, or Fox-body Mustang wearing those forged aluminum mags- and I was a car-watcher from Waaaaaaaaay back. ;D
ok.. guy changed his add.... now instead of being sure they were 14's he says yes they are 13's... thanks...roy
