1987 Chevrolet Caprice Base Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1987 Chevrolet Caprice Base bolts on using a 5x127 pattern with a 70.3mm hub bore. The stock setup runs 15x6 with a 10mm offset. You can step up in size through 15x6, 15x6.5, 15x7, 15x8, 16x8, 17x8, or 18x8—all compatible without special modifications.
Keep in mind that only the 5x127 bolt pattern will fit this Caprice; any other pattern won't work. Since your center bore measures 70.3mm hub-centric, use hub-centric rings if your chosen wheel has a larger bore to ensure proper fitment. Avoid aggressive offsets or widths that push the wheel too far outward, as excessive sizing risks contact with the fender or suspension components.
Every wheel we stock for your Caprice is verified to bolt on straight, and we ship free across the lower 48 states. Black Rhino, Fuel 1PC, Icon Alloys, and Vision are among the quality brands ready to ship for your build.
