This is the spare that was with my 68 GS I bought last year. Any idea what it is from?

Thanks George. Any idea what years it was available? Maybe I can find an oldsmobuick lover who would trade with me for a nice 14" chrome Buick rim... :rolleyes:

I would have guessed mid-70's and up. One of our members here has offered me a 14x6 rim for the cost of shipping, now ain't that cool? I won't reveal his name at this point, wouldn't want to cause an email stampede of requests for his spare rims... :rolleyes: 'course, if he's in FL or CA, shipping to ND could be a bit spendy...we'll have to see.

I might be mistaken....but isn't this a wheel from a 82-84 camaro? the olds wheels were similar, I thought the slots were much different then this though.

Could be it was used on there too. It does appear to be an exact match for some malibus I've found on some web searches. I just want to get rid of it, if someone can use it.

Well, I traded it off to a tire store and got a new tire mounted and balanced on the GS chrome rim I got from Scott M for a spare.
