Correct Wheel Code for 82 Steel Wheels

[ImEvil1]

Mike,

Sory for the delay....been busy with work the past few weeks but I'm catching up a bit.

The one correct wheel I have at the house has an "H" stamped on it. I have the original, NOS spare in my '82, and another original spare that still has an OE Eagle GT on it in one of my '83s. Next time I'm out at storage I'll take a look at those for you (unless Jim Y or another pre-85 owner beats me to it).

The regular '82 Ford wheels in the plain style (P1) were 14 X 5. However, the Ford books show that the same style wheel in a P1 for Police/Taxi cars (Fairmont) were 14 X 5.5. The SSP wheels are definitely the 5.5, which show as standard on many Ford cars starting in 1983. The part number for the '82s is E0BZ-1007-B, which is the same one listed for regular Mustangs starting in '83, and the LTDs, Fairmonts, etc. The smaller, 14 X 5 wheel is D8BZ-1007-B, so there are definitely two different versions of the same wheel. I have a set of four of the smaller ones; there's a noticebale difference when they are on the car. Hope this helps.
