    Hi all, looking for a set of 4 plain steel wheels for my father. He wishes to use them on his '64 El Camino. He's doing a COPO look, so just plain steelies with tabs to hold dog dish caps is what he's after. He's looking for 15" wheels, but will consider a set of 14's if they are straight and in nice shape. Please let me know. Thanks.

    I've got at least 4 possibly more 14" steel rims from either my '67 or 66, just the standard size I don't know what that is.
    they look pretty clean and straight to me I also couldn't tell ya if they have the tabs for dog dish i have the hubcaps for them, I'm out in Oswego.
    $50/4 you can pick the best 4 out of the bunch, they all currently have rubber on them as well (205" some ok some not)

    All of mine currently have tires on then so i can't measure them to be certain, they are the standard 14" steel wheels off a '67 skylark with drums, my guess is they're the narrower option. :Do No: I'm not sure if there is any way to tell.

    Lay a straight edge accross the rim and measure the offset and then flip the wheell over and to the same using the same point you meaured the other side and add the two togtrher. It should give you the width.

    Fellow members; there has been a turn in events. About 25 years ago, this El Camino my father has belonged to my uncle. My uncle is moving out of state in a few weeks. While cleaning out his garage on Sunday, he came across the original set of rims for the car which he thought he junked some years ago. He has since given them to my father and they have the correct tabs for dish caps. I'm sorry, but my dad no longer needs a set anymore at this time.

    Thank you very much for the offers though.
