The only thing you could get in 72-74 were 14" wheels.  They were 14x5.5".

My 73 came with the original 14" rallyes, first thing I did was swap them out for wider 15" versions with bigger tires.  Car just looked wrong with those tiny wheels & tires.  Keeping the 14" for originality sake but in no hurry to ever put them back on.

The Rallyes don't look good in 14". Nobody wants them. The road wheels look fine in 14". That's the only way they came.
