Might as well do wheels and tires all at once, but I'm not finding any decent looking 15x6 wheels that aren't ridiculously expensive. I measured the backspacing of the stock wheels and came up with 4 5/16"... Not much out there with a 5x5 pattern and that much backspacing that I can see.

Thanks!
I will post here, instead of your thread, concerning your future wheel selection. Your car has a 5X5 bolt circle. Same as 1/2 ton Chevrolet/GMC pickups, AND full size GM cars, from 1971- 1976. Look for these wheels, they will all be 15 inch wheels.. I am not sure about what width's you can use, though. 6 inches wide would work fine, I'd think...
