Don't think so Mike, 15" is as small as I've seen.

I used a set on my '56 F-100 from a mid '50s Imperial, and remember (?) only one or two years they were offered.

Besides the imperial wheel there was a chrysler wheel that looked like a common steel wheel

I have one that is 5 x 5 1/2 x 14 a newer style wheel like from the late 60"s if that counts.

I know that Lincoln used 14" steel wheels, with a 5.5" bolt circle for just a very few
years. I wish I could remember the years for sure, but believe it was 1957, 58, & 59

14 Inch Lincoln does not have nubs to hold a small hub cap, regular 14'' full caps work fine .Dave

A friend had a '40 Ford with Imperial 14" wheels and 9.00-14 Atlas Bucrons. Lotsa traction (and broken axles, rear-ends, and transmissions). (324 Olds).
