I have a set on my '96 Impala. 5X5 bolt pattern. I figure they're off maybe a '70s Chevy pickup or Suburban or something like that.

Re: 15x8 5 lug steelies
Early 70's chevy would be 6 lug . 6 x 5.5". I would look at early 80's c-10 trucks.

IIRC, a mid to late 70s GMC Heavy Half or Chevy Big 10 half tons w/o ralleys had those plain 15x8 wheels. '71 was first year for 5 lug on half ton trucks, coincided w/disc brakes.

Look for, and they aren't easy to find, Big car station wagons..........they have solid 15x8 wheels with the 5x5 bolt pattern. Buick, Olds, Pontiac and Caprice and some Cadillacs.

Re: 15x8 5 lug steelies
I had stockton build mine they are smoothies.. I love them but my dealings with stockton where not the best. There is a post some where on that it took 9 months or maybe longer for me to get my wheels.
