    The chart that I have from the road wheel article published in the Buick Bugle in August 2002 says that the 5 x 4.75" bolt pattern 15" wheels were all 15x7 with 4-3/8" back space. Also says that the '71-'72 14x6 wheels also had 4-3/8" back space. The article was a two part series, in June and August 2002. You can order back issues here if you are a BCA member:
