Any opinions about the look of Fleetwood wheels on our wagons? I'm running 6.5 truck rallys now but I want to go more tire without breaking the bank. Car is Caprice solid blue code 30. TIA

The FW wheels are the same size as the stock Caprice wheels. If you want to go to more tire, you may need wider wheels. I have mounted 255-60-15s on the stock rims without an issue. If you go to a wider tire than that, you may want to go to a wider rim, because the 255s should have a wider rim than the stock. When you go wider, make sure you do not change the offset, or the tire may hit the fenders.

Appreciate your input. The Caddy wheels were gone when I got there but I did score a RM set for $200. I'll have to find some centers but they seem readily available.

on the RM alloys there are two different sets of Center caps. 91-94 and 95-96 (they are larger).
I have a least one set of the earlier ones (probably 2), I don't have any of the larger ones anymore.

If you need I can measure the ones I have to see if they will work.

If Bucky53 doesn't need these, I'd be interested in a some of the 91-94's

The wheels I have are 95-96. Do any of the Caddy or Chevy centers fit. It'd be awesome if the Impala centers fit. They are everywhere.
