Anyone have any 5X5 pattern wheels laying around going unused? I need 2 of them.

14", for the Olds, or do you not care if 15" ?
Karl may have a couple with all his Biscayne stuff...

Up to 70 is 4 3/4 on 5, 71 and later is 5 on 5 for the Impala/Biscayne. Don't know if/when BOP changed.

Seems from what I have been searching. Early 60s BOP cars got the 5x5 pattern. At least that's my understanding. Internet searches haven't really net much info accept for a post or two on the HAMB that actually were quite helpful that popped up in the search results. Im not picky on the size. From what I understand, 15's are more common.

Might want to measure the pattern on the car, so you don't end up with wheels that don't fit...

All of my wheels are 4 3/4 pattern.
Some of those came off cars in U-Pull
I have a hub off a 66 I use to verify pattern.
One of my guys is parting our some 77 up stuff, I will have him check.
