Yes, they are 5 on 5. Many full sized GM cars in the 50s used 5 on 5 x 15" and some Chev one ton 5 lug trucks/vans from the 70s-80s are the same. The lunch guy is correct but offhand I can't recall which cars, I think Buick, Cad, & Pontiac but not sure. I know I have a set of 6x15, 5 on 5 from a 80s Chev one ton van that I used when I first changed from wire wheels.

Yes, 5 x 5. The rims used in the day were Buick rims.

15" Buick wheels were the most common sight on the rear of a Healey.

I have a set (4) of 15 x 6 GM Ralle (Corvette look) wheels that I bought from Wheel Vintiques (sp?) that I'd make you a heck of a deal on. The 195/65 Yokohamas are probably still 90-95% full tread!

The Ralle wheels can be seen in my signature pic.

I also have a perfect set (5) of original Healey steel wheels that have been restored available, including a decent set (4) of original hubcaps. Another deal. See: https://www.rfdm.com/gallery/album194
