Fred Teufert has a pretty comprehensive list of wheel bolt patterns and applications on his Pontiac information website: http://www.teufert.net/wheels/bolt-pat.htm

The big jellybean looking Caprices & Roadmaster Buricks from the early 90's had 5 on 5 bolt pattern & are fairly common wheels @ cheap tire/wheel jockeys. Most likely, the latest 5 on 5 wheel used on pre Gubberment Motors crusher bait.

My mid '80's Safari wagon has 5 x 5's.

I think I remember that some of the late model Jeep products had 5 x 5.

I didnt know any of this and all you guys were hoarding this info!? lol

[hobbygto65]

We're any of them wider than 6 inch?

[GruntedCatalina]

a few were 7 inch i believe(later model and i believe jeeps) But thats something i didnt think to put in. now that you mention it, it probably wouldve been better to include those. lol

[codyyy]

I thought the newer Jeep rims were metric? Or does it matter? I've been looking to replace the 70s Lincoln Mark rims on mine.

[Sirrotica]

The Jeep listing copy and pasted off of a Jeep site, no it isn't a metric size, same as the older smaller Jeep pattern is 4.5 is same as chrysler and ford, and most small trailer 5X4.5.

And really old Jeeps were 5X5.5, same as1/2 ton ford 2 wd trucks

The truck rally wheels went all the way up to 15 x 8

Good tech info!!

[codyyy]

I believe Edsels and Ford passenger cars like the Ranchero and Galaxie from 57-59 were 5x5 as well.

Today, while readying my Safari to sell it, I put a low mile set of radials from my Bonneville on it. Needing to put some hides on the Bonne, I grabbed a pair of 'air holders', Michelen LTX 235 75 15 on 1989 Ch3vy W/T full size silver painted wheels... they >JUST< fit on the back of the car.

[alleyCat]

^^^ too bad you need to sell the old girl

[GruntedCatalina]

Some of the vans of this era had some halfway decent rally wheels. Also many had the poverty cap option, which would be at least a temporary no-brainer in terms of looking OK. Best part is that there are many tires still available for these which can handle the load of a big car.
