No! Buick wheels have smaller curved "flat" spokes. Very obvious difference to those of us who are familiar with them.
(Note: the pic I'm posting is of the later 810 wheel, not the more common earlier 795 wheel. But the centers are the same)

and Duane, you should be looking for 14 X 7 wheels...Richard

I have Wheel Vintiques repro SS1's on my current 442 and had a set of Specialty Wheel SS1's on a 67 442 I used to have. I have not driven on the Wheel Vintique ones yet but the quality seems nice. The Specialty wheel one's I had were very nice.

I've finally driven on them and there's no problems. Here's a couple of pics of them and the Diamondback redlines.
