     If you're willing to spend a little more, Wheel Vintique makes a repro of the ralley wheel.  You can get it in several diameters and various widths and back spacings.  One version has a chrome outer rim and bare metal center that you can then paint whatever color you want.  They also make "baby moon" hub caps to cover the center.
    Recently bought 4 for a 65.  The fronts are 15x7 with a 4" inch backspacing, and the rears are 15x8 with a 5" back spacing.  They're not yet on the car, but have installed them and they fit nice.  They actually come with 10 bolt holes, 5 for 4.75" bolt circle and 5 for 4.5" ( I guess for Fords).  The cost was about $80 a wheel.  You can get them from Summit or order direct from Wheel Vintques.  The price from Summit is actually a few dollars cheaper --- go figure.
