You Need the wheels from a full size Buick up to and including 1976 with a 5 x 5 bolt pattern. The '79 would be 5 x 4 3/4 and would not fit the lugs.

I have a 65 buick wildcat conv't. Iam looking for rally rims and would like to know what years where interchangable. eg. would 1979 fit. I need 15x6 with 2" centre hole so my centre caps will fit. Thank you Russ.

While they may all appear similar, you should really try to find a good set of 4 original '65 rally wheels !
The '66-'70 wheels have a 2 1/8" diameter hole for ribbed centre caps, which would not be correct for your application.
The later '71-78 wheels have a 2" diameter hole for centre caps, a 5x5 bolt pattern, and are 15x6, but they are slightly different in appearance than the '65 chrome wheels, and no provision for wheel to hub register, in addition to a different offset (...backspace).
