    So am doing s/d work like a bugger and time is short , so i have a 57 super88 4 door sedan and 14,s r getting harder to find out here in the flatlands of the great white northso i,m wondering if there is a 15 inch rim that might fit this car . I,m going to the wrecker if i have time and see what can be found .I know to measure the bolt pattern &hole centre but i thought on the rough chance some one may have already done this .Also is not the 57buick the same set up as olds.thanks again later bake.PS Hi sean best to u and yours and take it easy on the sd trail.

    I believe the Olds had a 5" bolt circle like the Buick has had for many years. They are mostly 5x5x6" wide. This would mean you could also use the Buick Rally wheels if you so desired.

    They are 5x5. Would have to try to install the rim on your car.
