Default rims

Just installed front disc brake conversion kit on my 1963 corvette and now rims will not fit any suggestions on rims that will accept original hub caps

There's an outfit out there called Wheel Vintinqe or something like that. I think you could find stock-looking rally wheels with back spacing that will clear the calipers on your disc brakes. You might also get by by putting some spacers behind the wheels,this might require longer studs. Try stacking some 1/2" washers behind a wheel and see if that might work?
