1979 Chevrolet Chevette Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1979 Chevrolet Chevette uses a 4x100 bolt pattern and ships with a 13x5 wheel at 40 offset. ThreePiece carries compatible sizes from 13x5 up through 16x7, giving you room to modernize your look. Since the Chevette isn't staggered, you can run matching wheels front and rear across any of these dimensions.
Keep in mind that only the 4x100 bolt pattern will fit your Chevette, so verify any wheel you consider matches that spec. Your hub requires a 57.1mm center bore; if a wheel's bore is larger, use hub-centric rings to ensure proper fitment. Moving significantly wider or more aggressive on offset than stock may risk contact with fenders or suspension components, so stay conservative when experimenting.
Every wheel we stock for your Chevette is verified to fit and ships free to the lower 48 states. Vors, Enkei, Heritage Wheel, and Work Wheels all have options in inventory that'll work for your classic compact.
