Yes, although it's necessary to find out what bolt circle (5 on 4.75" or 5 on 5") you have. The easiest way to determine the bolt circle is to look at the lug nuts. If your o.e. lug nuts are 3/4'' o.d., then you have a 5 on 4.75 bolt circle. If the lug nuts are 13/16", then you have a 5 on 5 bolt circle. The rallye II wheels were made in both bolt circles.

Rally II is a Pontiac term. If you are talking about Oldsmobile Super Stock II or III wheels, these were ONLY made in the 5 x 4.75" bolt circle. Most 77-85 D88s came with this smaller bolt circle and the wheels bolt up. Cars with the HD suspension and brakes (12" rotors and 11" rear drums) used the 5 x 5" bolt circle and thus SSII/III wheels will not fit. All Ninety Eights and Custom Cruisers also used the large bolt pattern.

Ooops, I stand corrected. I must be losing it. Joe is correct the Rallye II wheel is a Pontiac wheel, and although they will fit your Olds, the centercaps would need to be adjusted to show something other than a Pontiac emblem. Thanks for catching that Joe.
