Looking for the stock wheel size/bolt pattern for my 71 Riviera. Have tried to search but terms are too generic and I end up nowhere. I even read my manual but it doesn't say. I want to keep a full-size spare on board, I have no spare at the moment... AAA only goes so far.

Thanks v8buick.com

Yikes... just called most of the local salvage yards and they couldn't help me - even Tire Rack couldn't help or direct me.

Assuming I'm not successful at finding such a wheel locally, where might I be able to buy one? Just looking for a steelie as an emergency spare, not a pretty one for show. Nothing jumped out at me in parts for sale section. Willing to pay new/shipping if needed.

Planning on taking her to my first car show tomorrow - not too far but looks like I'll be flying without a spare :P

Thanks guys...

Any pre 80 full size GM including Cadillac, and GM 1/2 ton 2 wheel drive trucks to 98 have the same bolt pattern. You may end up with 7" width though. The 15X6 full size Buick Rally wheels are easy to find on Craigslist.
