Title: Wheels For Sale or Trade
Post by: Whit on December 09, 2017, 10:45:26 AM
Have two Cadillac wheels, one primed and one power-coated light grey. Not sure exactly what year/model they fit (early 60's I think). Dia. 15"   Flange 16 5/8   Offset 4 1/4"   5 lug at 5" circle   Width 7" flange to flange

Will sell for $50 each or trade for a wheel to use as a spare for my 1960 Eldorado.

Looks like the 1961 to 1964 Cadillac wheel which are unique with their wider outer mounting lip on the flange Approx 16 5/8 (I measure it about 16 11/16").  These are getting harder and harder to find and will point my 63/64 Cadillac contacts to this thread. You might also post to the 63/64 Cadillac "For Sale" forum at www.forsale.6364cadillac.com
Also, just to note. The rim width is measured on the inside of the flange not the outside, so the rim is considered 15" x 6".  You should see 15x6, along with the year, and Kelsey Hayes (the manufacturer) stamped on the inside of the rim like on the 1956 rim in picture attachment.

I sent an email with link to this message thread to several parts customers on my Wait List for the 61-64 wheel this morning. Hopefully, one will pick the rims up from you.

Thanks so much Jason. I still need a wheel for a spare on my '60 Biarritz, if anyone might have one.
