Looking for a set of steel 14's 5x5 big body wheels, but not just any kind.

So in the spirit of Halloween, I started "haunting" older threads regarding the elusive N-93 steel rims ... yes, I am looking for a set of 4 of those.

One thing I've notice in these past threads is that a lot of people do not realize that they are different than just a standard 14 inch steelie. But when they find out it's different and hard to come by, it seems that there is a pattern of throwing our hands up in the air and giving up.

So much like the front disc brake conversion for single piston B-body Oldsmobiles, I'm wondering if anyone has determined a way to modify or use a different rim and drill, weld replace... etc.

So we know it is a 14x6 steel wheel with a 5 on 5 lug pattern and the backspace is different but by how much? Whats the hub hole diameter? Does anyone make a 14x6, 5 on 5 steel rim with the same backspacing as the Starfire wheel that can be drilled with the extra 3 holes? I just don't want to give up that easily... that's why I own B- bodies ... to torture myself finding parts...

Here are some pics I pulled from other threads regarding this wheel....​​​​​​​
