Caprice 77-89 will fit   15x7 hard to find   lots of 15x6    S10 rims are 15x6 and will fit as well

Caprice and S-10 are different bolt patterns Carl... The S-10 will be 4.75" (or 120.7mm) bolt pattern and the Caprice will be 5" (127mm)pattern similar to

the half ton pickups.. Both 5 bolt applications.

         Yes  I forgotno wagon being 5-5    

         and   1971-76   are 5-5    

         and 99 and up are FWD  5 =115mm

 

         So  he needs 15x 6 or 15x 7  from 77-90 Caprice sedan   or S10    

        The early Caprice had the bumps to hold Hub Caps...    

        the later Caprices with wire wheel covers (15x7)  didn't have the bumps disbelief

 

 

     I have set of 15x7 (bead to bead measurement) from Texas    paid 200 for them  saving for a future project...

    p.s.   don't forget most rims are 1 inch wider than beads  e.g. 15x6 measures 15x7  and 15x8 rally measures 9 inches

Yeah, I am saving a set of 15x6 and 15x7 for my current project. I like to use early 60's pontiac poverty caps on them.
