Hi all. An add came up for a pair of '48 wheels (add says 15in)

I just so happen to need two more wheels for my 54 firedome club coupe.

My part interchange guide only does 1950 up, does anyone know if these wheels will work / are the same as the 54

Thanks

Ben

Hola Ben

The Wheels of the "new series" of 1947 to 1955 Chrysler's Windsor and De Soto's are the same in Lug Pattern to Rim Width.

The "but designs" are with Suburban's - Traveler's - Station Wagon's and Carry All's.

If the wheel came from a Plymouth or Dodge - it will bolt to your De Soto --- but
the Rim Width is narrower. This will give you a fine "pizza cutter" look.
