1978 Buick Century Custom Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1978 Buick Century Custom accepts wheels with a 5x120.65 bolt pattern. The stock setup runs 14x6 with an 11mm offset. You can upgrade to 15-inch wheels or stay with 14-inch in sizes ranging from 5.5 to 8 inches wide, all with matching offsets front to rear since this model uses a square, non-staggered setup.
Keep in mind that only the 5x120.65 bolt pattern will fit your Century. Use hub-centric rings if your wheel's center bore exceeds our 70.3mm hub diameter—this ensures a proper fit and smooth ride. Wider or more aggressive offset choices risk contact with fenders and suspension, so verify fitment before ordering if you're pushing toward the larger sizes.
All wheels listed here bolt directly onto your car and ship free to the lower 48 states. We stock American Racing, US Mag 1PC, Vision, Performance Replicas, and several other quality brands that fit your Buick perfectly.
