Other '65 Wheels ?

[Martyn T.]

Are there other GM wheels/rims that will fit a '65 just for rolling the car in and out during restoration ?
Thanks,
Marty

There must be hundreds of different 15" wheels that will physically fit. Most any Chevy and BOP wheels shared the 5 lug 4 3/4" bolt patterns. Just need to make sure they aren't too wide 6" or so and will clear the brake calipers. I would think mid 60s to late 80s with the above dimensions will give you many dozens of choices. Any junk yard will have a ton of them and the price should be cheap. GL

I use compact spare tires for restoration work. Pump them up to 70 psi, they roll much easier than any conventional tire.
