Default 13" Wheels

The '65 coupe I recently bought has 13" wheels w/stock wheel covers. I haven't seen anywhere the mention of 13" wheels on Mustangs. Is this rare or just an EXTREMELY cheapo model?[/align][/align]Thanks[/align][/align]Crash[/align]

Those look like 14's to me. Mustangs did not have 13 inch wheels on any of their models to include the very first ones. Go out and measure them again.

What are you guys talking about? Of course, 13" wheels were available on '65 Mustangs!
