5 by 5 wheels
I have a 66 Delta 88 with stock wheels. I am interested in bumping up to 15 or 16 wheels, preferably in black steel. I know a lot of older Chevy 2WD truck wheels will fit. What are other good (cheap) alternatives for me? I can't seem to find what I need locally.

Every GM full size car built from 1971-1976 used the 5x5" bolt pattern, and all used 15" wheels. The 1977-1996 RWD B/C-body cars with HD brakes (basically, every C-body car, ever B-body wagon, and B-body cars with taxi or police packages all got the 5 x 5" bolt pattern and 15x7" wheels. These are readily available all over the place.

If you can't find anything used, these wheels are available new and will take a standard full wheel cover (but not a dog-bowl style hub cap).

I replaced my 14" steel wheels with 15" steel wheels for a 95 Caprice Cop car. I bought 5 on ebay for something like $20/each. New old stock. They do not have provisions for dog dish hub caps, but I put mid 50s 15" wheel covers on them. I have a 64/98 with 4 wheel drum brakes.
