I am needing a 14" 5 hole wheel with a 5.50 bolt circle, same as a Ford pickup. I've called used wheel places and salvage yards and the first question they ask is what's it on. When I say a manure spreader they are lost. Anybody have an idea what cars in the '60's or so used those wheels. Thanks
 
Sounds like a standard implement wheel and the only car that used that lug spacing was a 1950 Merc with 15" wheels or the 28-35 Ford and 41-48 Ford cars with 16", 17" 19" & 21" wheels.
 
Lincoln 1958-60 used 14 inch wheels in 14 inch I am quite certain.
Check the back spacing .
Possibly the largest Chrysler's too about the same years.
 
And Ford #B1015 in 18 " for 32 passenger.
Lincoln wheels in 14" from about 59 did bolt up to mid fifties F100. 6 inches wide as I remember. 8:50/9:00 X14 bias ply tires maybe.
 
Also match the the center hole of the wheels to the pilot diameter of the hub, especially if the wheel carries a heavy load.

The weight on the wheel is best carried into the hub through the center hole of the wheel. If the center hole of the wheel is too large, the wheel can be mounted off center. Also the bolts must then carry all the weight as shear. That extra loading will break wheel bolts much faster.

Look at some automotive wheel charts, they list the bolt circle, the number of bolts, the bolt size, and the center hole diameter.
 
We've got 2 of those in the shed with flat tires on them with no intention of putting new ones on them. They've been replaced with 15" rims. Where are you located?
