I am considering a 1966 Catalina that has been converted to disc brakes. The seller has gone with a 15" reproduction Rally I wheel. It looks nice but I prefer to keep the original look with the wheelcover. Are there 14" 5-5 wheels that could be used with disc brakes?

The conversion kit manufacturer probably required 15" because 14" won't clear the caliper. Just look at the clearance between the caliper and the inside of the wheel to confirm.
