Not even close. The 71-76 full size cars use a 5 x 5" bolt circle. And if you were thinking of using some newer wheels with the 5x100mm bolt circle, these are almost certainly FWD and will have the wrong offset for the RWD Olds.

So not even a set of 5x100 for RWD would work?

100 mm is about 4" (3.94" to be exact), which is a long way from 5"
