I really wish somebody made the magnums with trim rings in 15s. Would simplify my life for sure.
Check out the commentary at the bottom about the dash. Lol
I want my fair share

The problem with "wrong" Magnums is this:
If you want to fill up the wheelwells with a 15" wheel & tire but want an OEM look, it's about impossible as far as I can tell.
Main problem is no accurate-looking 15" trim rings.
I used to run 14x7 Magnums with Ford trim rings on my '69-up B-bodies when there were a lot of 14" tire sizes.
Looked pretty good on a B-body with 225/70 & 235/70 tires, and handled better.
Apparently, there are no "recall" wheels on the horizon, so options in the "middle ground" so to speak are very restricted. all the needed 14" tires are available at kelseytires  Carsten

of course it has incorrect wheels as most 69's do. But an inprovement over the 14' with trim rings if you ask me.  Hardley, and not asking you
