NotAWRX Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Hello all! I've been searching far and wide for a spare wheel that will mount in the stock location inside the engine bay on my 1976 DL/GF. I haven't been able to find an exact replacement, but have found a 13x5 steel wheel from a Loyale. I was wondering if this would fit in the engine bay and can be used if I get a flat? I know that my DL/GF has 13 inch wheels and wears 155/80-13 tires, but I do not know the actually width of the rim. This car is very new to me, I've only had for about a week, but would like to begin the process of getting the car show ready. So, if anyone has that information or any tips that will be a huge help!

Scooner Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Here is the original stock rim that was on my 80' brat which is same under the hood as your car, would you like to buy it? I will dismount the tire and see how much shipping will be to you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
