First, I wasn't sure what forum to post this so please forgive if I'm in the wrong area. I was wondering if anyone could give me the $ value of (5) 15X6 Buick Rally wheels. These are the 5 on 4 3/4" for A body cars. Removed from a 1971 Skylark custom but 2 have 7-31-68 written on the inside. ??? These are very nice condition but no center caps. Lug holes are nice. I may sell outright if I get a good offer but if not, will most likely go on ebay. P.S. I'm in Pennsylvania if anyone nearby wants to make an offer. Thanks, Bob
$100. If they were 15x7's probably double that. Not having centers brings the price down considerably. Since these are now being reproduced most guys are gonna go with new unless you've got a specific date stamp that someone's after. I'd recommend posting pic's of the stamps along with the wheels to get the best buck.
15x6?? I thought 15x6 rims were on the big car Buicks, with 5 on 5 bolt pattern. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Also, the 1968 stamped rims shouldn't be A-body 4 3/4 pattern rims. 68 & 69 GS/Skylark did not have 15" rims available. I'm not 100% sure, but almost... Pics might help, if you can post any.
Thanks for the replies so far guys. The date is written on with a black marker around the inside portion, not stamped so not sure what's up there. It's only on 2 of them. Where is this date code stamped at? Is there a wheel code like Chevelle wheels would have? Here are some pics:
Stamping is on the outter lip on the inside of the wheel. Those look like big car road wheels, I've heard that some of the mid-70's had the smaller 5 on 4.75 pattern but the overwhelming majority have 5 on 5" pattern.
Yep, those look like big car rims, instead of A-body. The 5 "spokes" on the big car rims are curved inward, like your pic shows. GS/Skylark rims the spokes are not curved much, if at all.
those look like 71- 76 electra, riviera, wagons, all the big buicks. will probley fit into the 80's rear wheel drives.
You guys are good! Turns out, these are 5 on 5 after all, they measure 3 inches from the center of a lug hole to another. (never use the visual guess method!) I was told they were off a 71 Skylark but looks like that can't be possible then. :rant: All 5 have the hand written date of 7-31-68 on the insides. The only thing I could find stamped on them was this: 15X6 L made in usa Y 2 8 E (the E is backwards) then 853 Does that tell anything? Oh yeh, the outside of the center hole measures 2 1/8" So I guess I have ask again on the value of these. Thanks alot, Bob
bob, i have a book around here somewhere. if no one gets back to you i'll look it up and let you know exactly what they are. they are not 68 wheels. i can tell that just by looking at your picture.
