maybe I could trade them for rims and parts. I need a RH fender, RH fender well, RH headlight support, RH headlight bezel, RH headlight plastic grill piece. Maybe a RH door. Cherry 15x7 rally wheels. Some other odds and ends. I have no idea what they are worth but they are in excellent condition. As far as the rally wheels, I only really like them with white wall tires and cant find any USA made 235/70/15 white walls. White letter I thought of but I dont know for that car. What to do.
It does mean something, thanks fellas. What do you think of wheelhouse moulding? On the 71 what would you think of 245/60/15 on 15x8 steelies with the same caps as the 73? white letter or blackwall?
These guys have a lot to choose from: https://www.dbtires.com I've been eyeballing these in maybe 17" for my Riv. Maybe someday...
here is a pic of the lug nuts on those wheels with short studs. Had I known that I doubt I would have driven it home.
Just to really confuse your thoughts there are places to get 18 and 20 steelies I'm thinking of a set and baby moons on one of my cars you already have the 20 inch tires
I think your best bet is to craigslist the rims and times and then use that money to find a set of road wheels. When looking for the 5x5 wheels, don't forget that Buick used them from '71 through the 80's. 80's wagons are where you will usually find the 15x7s if are you in a salvage yard. And I can confirm the 0000 steel wool trick for sprucing up the chrome. Combine that with a quick mask and black semi-gloss spray and they can look pretty decent.
I could look for the 15x7 now and when I get them, then sell the 20s. What should I pay for a set of mint 15x7? That would look incredible.
