For you guy's going down to the Nationals if you come across a nice set of 70' specific Riviera rims get the guy's phone number so i can call him. My car only has 31k on it now so i'm looking for "NICE" rims. I need some rims on my 70 LeSabre. It's crying for an upgrade:ball: :ball: :ball: .
I have a set of 4 that will fit, that are in good driver cond............the chrome is a little worn on all 4, and I have 4 caps also in driver condition, slightly pitted. These were not good enough for my car, but I am fussy. I can post a picture later if you are interested, but pictures tend to make things look better than they really are. I would be happy to get $60 each plus shipping. These are not perfect. :bglasses:
All I know is the '66-'70 wheels are alike in their 2-1/8" center hole and backspacing. As far as how to tell them apart from disc brake wheels or whatever, I don't know......but these fit my '67 and they all look alike to me. These are definitely not the '71-'76 wheels that have a 2" center hole and different backspacing. These should fit your car. Do you have disc brakes up front? :bglasses:
No disc brakes. One way to tell if you have 70' correct rims is in the painted area there is a dip in the surface right by the lug holes. It drops in about 1/2 " Do you know what i mean now o No:
All of 4 of the wheels I have have the 1" dip. That dip is what I meant by backspacing............the '71-'76 wheels with the smaller 2" hole do not have the dip. This is one of them, I have had these up in my garage for over 15 years, and I did not clean this one up:
The wheel you are showing looks like the wrong one. Maybe it's just the angle of the picture. i'll find a junk rim and post picture's so everyone knows what i'm talking about.
