I have a set of 15x6" wheels that came off a Chrysler. They have the solid disk like the cop wheels but no slots or holes. Anybody ever see this?

They still have tires mounted, I thought they were 15x6 but you might be right.

They have the Mopar dual concentric ring hub and the nubs that fit a Mopar dog dish hub cap. Without looking at them I can't say for sure if the have the rally center cap mounting holes that some wheels have.

They probably ran out of the standard wheel or discontinued the solid wheel so they got slapped on a Chrysler. Wouldn't be the first time stuff was carried over until it was used up like the switch over from aluminum to cast iron six pack intake manifolds.

Are you talking about mi/early 60's Imperials with their unique bolt pattern?? IIRC, 5 on 5 ??

Many late '60s C-bodies used 15 x 6" solid wheels (5 x 4 1/2" bolt pattern).

I had a '70 300 at one time, with the slotted
road wheels. The spare was as described,
solid center and no holes between the lug
holes. I would also guess late '60, early
'70. Not sure of the application for a whole
set, maybe cop car??????

https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/show...&PHPSESSID=


Parts I seek: driver doorpanel, 65 Sport Fury, prefer black, needs to be 7-8 on 10 scale, might buy set 16" x 6" Dodge truck wheel(s), from early 70s?, takes 9" dogdish - need for a research job so cheaper is better. 69-73 C-body caliper brackets and/or splashields Send a PM.

Here is what the wheel on the green fury looks like. They are the same basic wheel used to make the chrome road wheels used on many Mopars. They just don't have the little slots around the perimeter. These aren't what the OP is asking about though.

Dad had a new '69 Plymouth Suburban wagon with solid steel wheels. "Plymouth Division" stamped into the poverty dog dishes.
