15'' steel wheel and poverty caps on a 1969
i am looking for a 15x8 w 4.5'' bs steel wheel that will take either an original or a repro pontiac poverty cap. I had been told wheel vintiques offered such a wheel but i do not see anything with the correct style for the poverty cap.
I am putting 275 60s on them, will a 15x7'' work if i find a 3.5-4'' bs? thanks in advance

A 15 x 7" rim with stock BS (4.25"?) will work, I have WV Rally IIs with 275/60/15 on my '72 A-body.

You want a 4.75" bolt circle. 4.50" is Ford or small Mopar.

Dog dish caps
Wheel ventiques style #62, 15x8", 4.25" back spacing will fit the bird with poverty caps. Also you can buy 15x5's, 205--70-15's will look great.

Wish there was a 15x8 I could put a 14 69 bird hubcap into.
