14 inch rims that fit

[heddrik]

So, what year rims fit the 61 to 64 Impalas? How new can you go and keep same bolt pattern, offset, etc? Any information appreciated. Heddrik.

Are you planning on frt.disc brakes for the car? If so Mike [1958Delivery] will likely have the best definative answer to your question.

Yes eventually, that 's why I am asking this question. Thank you Mr Don

Original 14" fit my disc kit perfectly NO spacer

The disk kit I put on my wagon will fit the 14inch factory rims so long as you have a 1" spacer behind them. First you must know which kit you are getting before you consider what rim to use. My factory rims come close to clearing the caliper but needs the spacer.

Thank you for your answers .Maybe I need to be more specific. If I go to a junkyard how do I tell if 14 inch rims will fit an Impala 61-64??

5 on 4.75 inches. 5 bolts and cross-wise they are 4.75 inches away. If you can find newer rims then look for ones with the widest opening in the rear to clear the disk brakes you are thinking about. I have some old school aluminum slots that clear my disk break set up but that isn't what I want to run on my car. You are close enough to CTC Auto ranch in Denton. You need to run up there and see what you can find there. May run into some tri-5 (1955-1957) chevy's with 15x5" rims. Those are the ones to get in my opinion. Great skinny front runners and a wide selection of tire sizes to pull from. Biggest issue with 14" is few people make tires for them any more.

I have disc on the front of my 63 impala and I used 80S RIMS like off a regal or cutlass
