1988 Buick Century Custom Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1988 Buick Century Custom uses a 5x115 bolt pattern with a 70.3mm center bore. The stock setup runs 14x5.5 at a 42mm offset. You can upgrade through 18x7.5 wheels—14x5.5, 14x6, 15x6, 15x6.5, 15x7, 16x7, 17x7, 17x7.5, 18x7, or 18x7.5 all fit without issues. Since this is a square fitment, you pick one size front and rear.
Any wheel you choose must have a 5x115 bolt pattern to mount correctly on this Buick. The hub center bore is 70.3mm; if a wheel's bore runs larger, use hub-centric rings to ensure a proper fit. Avoid aggressive offsets or extreme widths that could cause rubbing against the fender or suspension components, particularly when going significantly wider than stock.
Every wheel we stock for your Century is verified to bolt on and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. Heritage Wheel, Petrol, American Racing, and Asanti Black all carry fitments ready to ship, so finding the right look for your Buick is straightforward.
