Try the 1/2 ton Ford pick-ups. I think they all use the 5 on 5 1/2" bolt pattern. Even my old Model "A" uses that bolt pattern. Your '54 Ford is the same I believe.

Wes, Your mainline has a 5 on 4 3/4 pattern. I have a 50 and a 51 coupe, both of them is the same as your mainline. any ford wheel from a 49 up wheel will fit. My 51 has a set of alum. bullet hole mags off of a 88 Ranger on them. The 50 has a set of alum mags off of a Ford explorer on it. Mustang wheels, maverick wheels (5 lug) Falcon, Torino, almost any Ford except pick-ups and lincolns will fit.

RB, You know I'll be dawged if you ain;t right. We just bought a set of wheels for my sons S-10 chevy and they are 5 on 4 3/4! The Fords are 5 on 4 1/2. You know what they say about getting old, your mind is the frist to go. I spend a right smart of time taking my foot out of my mouth anymore. Thanks for straighting me up one more time, Sorry for the wrong info. Roger.

ARP, Thats the people who make bolts and such for engines ain't they. They sell them in the Summit and Jegs catalogs. But if you mean The association of Retired people, NOOO I never heard of such!!

There are several companies that make aftermarket wheels that should fit your car. I just purchased a set of Pacer wheels that were 5 lug on 4 1/2 in. center for my 59 Fairlane. They have some old styled wheels that look extremely well on older vehicles. You can try their website.
