I need to find a replacement spare wheel for my 57 Fireflite convertible. Can anyone tell me what size it should be? The one in the trunk looks like a 14" x 6" but I've seen a references that indicate it should be a 14" x 6.5".

Are the wheels the same as say a Chrysler or something else or are they Desoto specific?

Thanks, Doug

The 14 X 6" is correct for your car. I think the 14 X 6.5" were only used on the letter cars, New Yorkers, and the big wagons.

300s, New Yorkers, Adventurers and Fireflites all had the 6.5 wheels.
