1981 Plymouth Caravelle Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1981 Plymouth Caravelle uses a 5x100 bolt pattern with a 57.1mm hub-centric bore. The stock setup runs 14x5.5 at 43mm offset. You can upgrade through plus-sizing—14x6, 15x6 through 15x7, 16x7 through 16x7.5, or 17x6.5 through 17x7.5 all bolt on directly without suspension modifications.
Since only 5x100 fitment works on your Caravelle, verify any wheel's bolt pattern before purchase. The 57.1mm center bore is hub-centric; if your chosen wheel has a larger bore, use hub-centric rings to ensure proper centering. Aggressive offsets or widths beyond what's listed risk rubbing the fender or suspension, so stick to compatible sizes listed here.
Every wheel we stock for your Caravelle is verified to bolt on and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. Brands like Katana Racing, Heritage Wheel, Work Wheels, Motegi Racing, and Enkei are ready to ship.
