I would like to know what the bolt pattern dimension/measurements are for stock 54 Chevy wheels ? Thanks ! Originalstack
5 bolts on a 4 3/4" circle, same for most Chevy passenger cars from 1949 to 90s. Some big cars use 5 on 5" circle, wagons, El Caminos, and such.
While we're on the topic, I'm looking for 2 steel wheels with that lug pattern that will accept full hub caps. Anyone know where to get some?(cheap)
The problem on 49-54 Chevys isn't the rim accepting the cap, any cap of the proper size fits stock 49-54 rims. But the front spindles poke way out of the narrow rims on the front, so a lot of caps won't clear it. 53-54 Chevy fit; 58-62 Rambler fit, and anything else with a deep peak to them. As for rims, any yard should have them; and you can probably pick between 14" and 15" if you poke around a little.
Do you know the backspace needed to eliminate the spindle problem for new set of chrome wheels on a 54chevy.
my 1953 chevy 210 has 5 on 5 bolt pattern....anyone here know why? i thought they were all 5 on 4 3/4
old thread , but why not......either the bolt pattern has been changed , or you are not measuring it correctly
No, it does not, unless you have conclusive evidence that the hubs/axle flanges have been re-drilled.
here is the proof that my 1953 chevy 210 coupe is a 5 on 5 bolt pattern....the car components are stock.5 on 5 is a pontiac ,buick pattern,correct?
that looks like you're holding the measuring tape a quarter inch too far to the left. The measurement in the drawing above is to the outside of the stud, not the nut.
