1962 Buick Special Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1962 Buick Special runs a 5x120.65 bolt pattern with a 70.3 mm hub bore. The stock setup is 15x6 at 18 mm offset. You can step up to 15x6.5, 15x7, 15x8, or 16x7—all bolt right on without modification. This is a square, non-staggered application, so you have full flexibility across all four corners.
Only wheels with 5x120.65 bolts will fit your Special; no other pattern works on this car. Make sure any wheel you choose has a center bore of 70.3 mm or larger, and use hub-centric rings if your new wheels have a larger bore. Going too wide or too aggressive on offset can invite rubbing into the fenders or suspension, so stick within the compatible sizes listed above.
Every wheel we stock for your 1962 Buick Special is verified to bolt on and ships free to the lower 48 states. American Racing, Ridler, Vision, and WELD Performance are among the brands ready to ship now.
