p15 Rims

Does anyone know where I can get a pair of rims for my 1948 P15?

Remanufactured or NOS would work for me.  The spare is bent by  about 3/8" and the right rear which I'm currently driving on is bent enough that the tire sidewall moves in and out 1/4" when rotated.  I feel the vibration at 45+mph.

I seen some similar on ebay, but you never know for sure what you'll get.

1948 was the first year for 15 inch wheels and the Plymouth used a 15 by 4 1/2 (wide).  The center of these wheels was flatter than those used in 49 and those used from 50 to 54 but all will fit the hubs.   Dodge in the USA used a wheel with  a different offset due to their unique wheel hubs.

 

 These too will fit on the Plymouth but the offset is different so they should be used as a set.

 

Chrysler and Desoto used a 15 by  5 1/2 wheel which will also fit the Plymouth.    All of the above use the same bolt circle.
