    As you know, You cant just order a set of wheels for a 62 lesabre. can any tell me anyone who can help me out with aftermarket wheel fitment. I know what i need but just cant seem to find specs on wheels on most wheel sites and nobody really seem to know much about the subject. Any help would be appreciated.

    Do '62s have lug bolts (as opposed to studs and nuts) and a pilot stud? (as '55 and earlier have?)?

    You generally need to know the diameter, width, as well as backspacing and lug pattern to order wheels. You can't just say I need wheels for a '62 LeSable.

    62's have studs and lug nuts.

    I would look for a set of 64 Wildcat chrome wheels. They will clear the larger hub that was used 64 and earlier, will clear the drums, and will not require spacers.

    If you need a set of standard black steel wheels, I have an extra set of 4 from a 63 LeSabre. $80.00 plus the trip

    Mark if he passes let me know if theyre still available. Assuming theyd clear the monster aluminum drums on a 68 riv, going for steelies on my riv for a hot rod look.
