Is there a 14” Rally wheel available that fit the Wilwood 3” hub?

Installed the “A” body kit for 9” drum spindles. Installation went well except wheels don’t fit whiney.

I saw a Wheel Vintiques Series 56 14” wheel that appears to have a larger center bore,
but Summit did not list that information. confused

Help!

And Thanks!

I am looking at quite a few rally wheels on line. It appears that the 5X4.5 wheels have a larger diameter center bore for the hubs.
Are the small bolt pattern (5X4) the small center hole only?
Will the 5X4.5 the answer?
Wheel stud location can be changed.

Interesting. I've never done much with the SBP wheel cars, but the BBP (5x4.5) wheels do have a large center bore.
I've fitted then over disc hubs like yours without issue.
Plus, the BBP opens up wheel choices greatly, if that matters to you.

Unfortunately, new SBP axles from Dr. Diff are already installed.
I am going for the stock sleeper look.
Just going to purchase 2 wheels with 5X4.5 BP

Now I can sleep tonight.

THANK YOU! 🙏

Before you do that, let me measure one of the original steelies from my '68 Road Runner.
You can compare to yours, just to be certain.
Send me a PM to remind me in the morning.

all small bolt pattern factory steel wheels have a smaller hub register than do the large 4 1/2 bolt pattern wheels.
i can't recall what the sbp register is, but the hub size of the lbp is 2.800 while the wheel register hole can be from 2.805 to 2.820 or so.
this is from years of measuring wheel center holes of factory steel wheels.

I checked my BBP steelies just now - the architecture makes it impossible to get my calipers in there squarely, but I got 2.760" as a minimum.
That's kinda half-caliper, half-eyeball.
So, I won't doubt Bob's 2.800".
I'm sure there's a published spec somewhere, as well.
