They are ones listed ebay listed for 56-57 Thunderbird.   They are exactly what you are looking for.  They even come with a horn ring and bolt right on.  They are around $350, but worth the money and we need to support the vendors that actually invest to make stuff we need.  Also by the time you restore one, cut one down or buy one that requires an additional adapter, or buy one that looks ridiculous in our cars you would be ahead with the new sized repo.

I'd like to see one of these wheels up close. Back in 2007 the only place in the US that cut them down wanted $1000.00 to tool up for it. I got mine made in Australia and ended up paying about $1000 anyway by the time you counted shipping. Don't look at $369.00 as being overpriced. I can say I got $600 worth of comfortable driving the last four years, that should count for something. Yea, right. LOL  Jim
