What wheels fit a 68 new yorker

[Speed_Kills96]

I looked online it says 5x114.3. So there is a lot of vehicles that have wheels like this but what have you used in the past or are using now that is aesthetically pleasing?
And what vehicle were they from?

My personal favourite are Magnum 500s.

The bolt circle is 5x 4.5 inches. Stock width varied depending on 14 or 15 inch rim, but I'd use 6.5 inch as the stock baseline.

I like them too. But I have a question about those wheels. Who made them and were they not used on other brands of cars? Or were they made with a slightly different style say for GM? I was never clear on this.
Thanks

In the United States, the wheel style was manufactured in Lansing Michigan by the Motor Wheel Corporation and were optional in the 1960s and 1970s on GMs,Fords, AMCs, and Mopars.

Bolt circle, diameter width etc. depended on what they were on. Ford variants were all chrome and without a trim ring.

Great looking 300, just like mine, but you need the fender skirts.

I simply purchased some used Dodge wheels that are 15 x 7 from the local junk yard. Blasted them and powder coated them black. I mounted 255/60R15's on them, but should've went a hair taller to keep the speedo correct. They are not in the picture in my signature.
