I am new to this and need a little help. I recently bought a 1960 convertible and it has a bent wheel. Any help where I can get one and what years are the same. It is 15X6 with the large valve stem opening. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Brian

The wheel you need is Cadillac #146 9869. It fits 1957-60 all models except Sabre wheel and series 75 & CC. The Sabre wheels are a chrome faced wheel that is half aluminum. The big series( 75 & CC) is harder to tell. It looks the same and should fit,but is made of a thicker gauge metal. It  will also have a small hole drilled in the web ,that the proper wheel doesn't.
Where to get? Try wanted in this forum. Try specialized junk yards. They advertize in Hemmings and in the Cadillac Club Self Starter . Warren

can you use the spare for now and keep the bent one for a spare until you come across one?
