My 63' Cruiser came equipped with disc brakes from factory. The current owner only has 2 of these wheels and non-stock (6-inch) replacements out back. I have 5 radials on late 70's Ford LTD wheels. Will the disc brakes interfere with those wheels ??

You'll just have to test them... some do and some don't... but your chances are pretty good that they will work fine...

Chances are they will clear the disc brakes no problem. A lot of the time the problem is at the rear because the offset leaves the tire too close to the inside of the quarter panel. Tim K.
I have the " Ford Rims on my 1964 Daytona Convertible. The fenders are the same as the 63s. I have no problem with clearance front or rear and I run 205x75x15.
You should have no problem. They also fill the wheel wells nicely, help the handling, and the wheel covers no longer come off every 5 miles.
