As Bill Watson has documented, there were changes in wheel
size over the years and models. However all of the Motor Wheel wire
wheels installed as original factory equipment or sold as options at the
Mopar dealer parts counters were 15".
It is very common today, as it was in '57 and later to see
Chrysler products, which had 14" steel wheels from the factory, with 15" wire
wheels installed. The dealers back then were happy to sell you a set of
spectacular 15" chrome wire wheels for your car. It is exactly the same
today! But Chrysler Corporation only offered these chrome wires as factory
equipment for 1956 and earlier.

Good information about the
wheels. Can you clearify which of these wheels were 14? and which were 15?,
as during this period some of those cars used 15? then changing to 14? as years
progressed.
