None. Althoughold 30's mag rims made for the car would fit if you wanted something special. You would have to check if any companies still manufacture any - I'd assume that would be a special order but possible with the right company or maybe you could just get the original rims chromed. Those rims were also thinner (widthwise) and the inch size was larger (taller) to go through rough conditions. You cannot gomuch widerwith new rims (especially the fronts - because of turning radius) and you might want the stock height (to eliminate any bottoming out) but I assume by now most roads are paved so you could maybe go to a smaller rim (maybe an inch or two) for a small drop in height. I'm not sure if the newer 40's deals had the same lug pattern. The original rims went from 16" to 21" tall and were basic part number 1015. They had wire and solid rims. I believe the solid was mostly for trucks (and truck patterns may or may not be the same I'm unsure).
