The 4-lug on the Maverick is the same as the older 4-lug Fords. Mustang IIs and Pinto wheels wont work on a Maverick. They are 4.25" (Same as late model Mustang 4-lug). This limits your choices even more, because V8 Fords always had 5-lug and wheel companies catered to the V8 crowd. Your best choice is to wait until you can convert to 5-lug (All V8 Mavericks and ALL Mavericks 1973-up had 5-lug suspension that can be swapped to your Mav) -CP
: ..due to the 4-lug setup. Best to stay with a 14x6 or 14x7. I doubt you will find a custom 15" rim in the Ford 4lug. Your bolt spacing is 4.5". That interchanges with: Maverick (obviously), Comet, Pinto/Bobcat, MustangII, ChevyII & Corvair, Datsun 510 & 240 - 280Z, older Toyota Corolla, Corona, Celica, MGB. Note these are all obsolete & orphan cars. The center hole diameters & offset/backspacing will be different on all those makes, so watch out.
