    Hey guys, was surfing on another Buick site and came across a question I didn't know the answer to. Guy has a 1962 Skylark with 13" wheels. He would like to use 14" or 15" Buick Rallye wheels. What's the best way to accomplish that? I know adapters aren't the safest solution. How about swapping axles? What rear was in that car?

    I had a `63 Nova SS years ago that I had the axle flanges re-drilled for 5 lugs. I don't remember what it cost but don't recall it being very expensive to do it. On the front I just swapped the hubs and drums with some off a V8 car.
