Those rims come is three sizes! What size are your other three???  14x5.0, 14x5.5, and 14x6.0 are your options. Let us know, I may be able to help out depending on the size.

The other 3 rims are 5 inches wide from inside of lip to inside or 6 inches outside to outside . It has to hold a poverty hub cap which is 8 3/4 inches around . Any help would really be great . Thanks

Are they the original rims that came with your car? If they are they will be 14x6.0  Any chance you can post a close up picture of one of the rims showing the valve stem area? There are numbers stamped to the right and left sides of the valve stem hole, and possibly a seven digit part number stamped above the valve stem hole. That would help a lot.

The guy I bought them from said they came off a 72 Challenger , which don't mean anything the 4th rim looked to be off a truck .Is there a reason I could not use a 6 inch with 3 5's ? If thats the size you have . What kind of car came with 5 inch rims . By the way no way can I do the pitcher thing . The trim ring is 8 3/4 inches across with out the humps that hold the cap on .

A 1970 cuda with a 340 would come with a 14x6.0 rim. Base model Barracuda's could come with 14x5.0, 14x5.5 and 14x6.0 steel rims.  If you are just looking for any 14x6.0 rim, you should be able to find one somewhere.  If you want correct 14x6.0 rims for your car, PM me and I can help you out.
