Wheels for 1964 Cadillac Deville vs 1962 Cadillac Wheels

[Cesar Espinosa]

Good afternoon,

I need to purchase two wheels for my 1964 Cadillac Deville and all advertisements I've seen on eBay mention that the 1961-63 wheels fit that 1964 Cadillac.  Is this true?  Were all Cadillac wheels from 61-64 the same size?

 Thank you for your guidance.

Hi Cesar,

     If Jason Edge doesn't have these, I just saw a set of two wheel rims on ebay.  It's from USA Hot Rod and they are listed for $275.  Looks like they will fit a 64 De Ville.  Take a look.  Listed as "5 on 5 Cadillac Steel Wheels Rim, 15" for 61, 62,63,64 wheel".  They are used and look original.

Thank you, Dennis.  Yes, those are the ones I was thinking of purchasing but wasn't sure if they fit my 64.  I'll give it a try!

1961 to 1964 Cadillac Wheels (steel rims) are the same, but there were two versions, one the standard wheel without rivets used on most body styles; and one with rivets that was a heavy duty version used on 75 Series (Limo) and commercial chassis  body styles. They are of course interchangeable in that you could put a HD rim on another body style and vice versa.   The one thing they did share were the "dimples" in the rim that I am not seeing in this eBay link. All 63's and 64's I have pulled in with original rims had the dimples like you can see on our Tires: Original Tires and Rims (Wheels) used on 1963 & 1964 Cad...  help page.
I don't like to talk about other listings, but that rim does not have the appearance of the 1961 to 1964 rim with the dimples, it has a pretty significant dent, they show the Hayes Barton mark on inside, but year stamp is not shown, and it has some pretty significant rusting.  I have been selling these rims for $50 for 20 years and probably the reason I stay out, but I googled 1961 to 1964 Cadillac Wheel (steel rim) and found some much better and correct examples for about $150. Here is one example: Click Here

If not in a big hurry  can put you on my Wait List for a 1961 to 1964 Cadillac Wheel.

I also copied in a picture of an original standard 1961 to 1964 Cadillac Wheel below.. not the dimples:

Cesar,

     Good luck with the wheel rims.  See Jason's comment.  Looks like they are the same.  You are very welcome.
