Legendary Styled Aluminum Wheel - 15 X 7 - Argent Inserts - Repro ~ 1967 - 1973 Mercury Cougar

Hello,

I love the wheels but none of them fit on my Cougar!

I was told that if I get power brakes that the front ones might not fit now until I switch over to the power brakes. But the back wheels don't fit either. The studs are too short on all 4 wheels so I need a thinner center section to allow the lug nuts to get more than a 1/2 thread. The lug nuts should have at least 3/4 of thread to hold the wheel on safely.

They have tires on them and this is the first time that I tried to put the on. I just picked up my car Friday afternoon!

Suggestion on wheels replacements

Take Care,

Brad

*NOTE* These Legendary wheels require being installed with Legendary lug nuts: here.

WOW!! These rims where above and beyond my expectations! They fit the car perfectly and then adding 225 60 15's to the mix. Again WOW!! The Tire shop that I deal with had no issues. the rims balanced with very little weight and mounted easily with the lug nuts that fit the rims. The tire tech was very impressed with the quality of these rims and he was impressed of how it made the car look more correct for the year. If I ever get another Cougar, guaranteed these rims will go on it. Thanks WCCC

 

These fit perfectly, look fantastic and are of high quality in every way. VERY little weight was needed to balance them and the black background Mercury Man caps look as good as NOS but mount so much better than the OEM ones did. Thank you WCCC for bringing these to market!

put these on my 67 cougar- very nice product. the finish and quality were excellent! Fit perfectly. I used the 3/4 inch lugs which seemed to help with the installation- would have been a tight fit otherwise and could have scratched the wheel finish. I used BFG T/A 15 225-60's to complete the look.
