Where can I get stock wheels for a '63 Valiant. Book says, 5-bolt, 4" stud hole circle, studs 7/16" and the wheel is designated as a 13 X 4-1/2J. Thanx for hour help and consideration Regards. RMDV.

Thanx for the response Fopar. I forgot to add in the post is I am looking for a source for new wheels. The stock for the car 13 inch. IO have some that are much worse for wear and want to replace them with new if possible. Thanx again, Regards.

They are not available new—and it's difficult to imagine why one would want to go to the trouble and expense unless one were doing a no-expense-spared, back-to-100%-original restoration, in which case new-production wheels wouldn't suit anyhow. There are virtually no tires worth using available in the 13" sizes any more, and the 13" wheels constrain you to a choice of brakes that are inadequate or brakes that are completely inadequate.
