15" 1990 Lincoln Town Car alloy wheel option with Cragar push through center caps. The bolt circle was already 5 x 4.5, but the centers had to be upsized to fit the rear axle flange, then they were powder coated in mirrored silver. Tires are Hankook P235/75/15.
Would a road wheel centre fit?

The wheel itself would not go on over the axle flange that sticks out; even without the center cap installed. I did not have any road wheel centers to try using with that wheel. Since the wheels had to go to the machine shop anyway, I had the Cragar center caps dialed in so they are a push fit from the backside.
I am not sure if that is what you were asking.

Bought this a few months back. Still needs some tlc but overall a nice cruiser. I might open a topic to post some updates now and then. It has 383 commando with the 727 trans. 4 barrel runs on lpg because of dutch gas prices :D

Nice rims. I don't think they're going to be available in US/Canada for under $200 each by the looks of it.
What is the back spacing?
I would have gone with 225-65-15 tires personally, but it seems nobody makes any tires in that size, but it would have given a correct rotations-per-mile of about 755 - 760.
Your 235-75-15 is going to be 8% larger diameter vs factory G78-14 (or 8.25-14), your speedo will read 60 mph when your actual speed will be 65. Any reason you chose 75 profile tires and not 70?
