You don't have the 11" disks on the front do you? If you just have the stock brakes that should have come on there, I believe the 14" wheels should fit.

Problem with that is there aren't many sizes of slicks or drag radials made in 14". 13 is pretty common for slicks but you have to run the small brakes so most of us stick with 15's.

If you have 10 inch brakes, 14's will fit, 13's probably not unless you switch to an old L body or early K car setup. If you have 11's, 15's are the minimum.

I have the stock break setup
so does that mean that I have the 10" breaks
so 14 will fit?

also are there any cars that have a 6.5" wide wheel that fits our lug pattern

Plenty of Daytonas came with 15x6.5 crab wheels. The 88 CSX-T Lemans wheels are also a popular selection for slicks.

I believe it should have the 10" discs on there, but I would double check since you could have gotten a Lebaron with the 11" brakes.
