Options & Packages
Chrome-and-painted 14-inch styled steel wheels that became one of the most recognizable early Mustang appearance options.
Factory and dealer offering
Styled Steel Wheels used a distinctive stamped pattern, bright trim, and center caps to give the Mustang a sportier factory look. Period availability, wheel construction, center-cap design, and dealer accessory status need to be scoped to the car's build date.
No defensible 1965 factory-versus-dealer installation total has been found.

Every number below retains its scope and attribution. A reported estimate is useful evidence, but it is not presented as a Ford production record.
Factory and dealer offering
The price list restricts Styled Steel Wheels to eight-cylinder models. Wheels could also be replaced or added later, so present appearance is not proof of factory installation.
Correct rim dimensions, centers, trim rings, finish, dates, tire fitment, and paperwork all matter on a high-value restoration.

Factory and dealer offering
Styled Steel Wheels are visually distinctive but easy to add later. Wheel size, finish, center caps, trim rings, dates, application, tire fit, and the presence of a factory-recorded option all contribute to an originality claim.
Marti explicitly distinguishes Ford-recorded factory options from dealer add-ons. Any licensed installation count would cover the former, not every period or modern wheel installation.

| Availability | Ford listed 14-inch Styled Steel Wheels as a regular-production option on all 1967 Mustang models with V8 engines; dealer replacements and later additions are a separate population. |
