Well it either has Small Bolt Pattern (SBP) rims or Large Bolt Pattern (LBP)

SBP rims are 5 lugs on 4" circle (5x4")

LBP rims are 5 x 4.5"


Really need to measure the rims.........

Measure from center of 1 lug bolt to outside of an opposite lug bolt and you'll either get 4" or 4.5". Check front and rear as parts may have beens swapped sometime or other

If nothing have been changed you have the small bolt pattern. 1972 was the last year for that pattern I believe. Dart/Demon and Valiant/Duster rims up to 1972 will fit and Barracuda rims up to 1969.
So you do not have a lot to choose from.
But if changed you have the large pattern. You can put on just about any rim, even the shivvy and f... ones.. phew..
Almost forgot, if you have disc brakes you need to have the 14" rims.

Nope. 4 wheel drum equipped A body cars could be had til the end of A bodies in 76 and still had 5 on 4 (SBP) My brother had a 76 Feather Duster that came that way.

Volare/Aspen rims were all LBP. As mentioned aerlier unless it's been changed to late discs and/or 8 & 1/4 rear end, your 72 will take 14inch SBP wheels.
