What size is the wheel bolt pattern for my 54 estate wagon. Looking for wire wheels in any cosmetic condition for my car.
thank you!

Herb, I think a 54 wagon is the same as other 54 models. The bolt pattern is 4 1/2" Dia. the holes are for 1/2" bolts. Les
Mine has a lot larger pattern than 4 1/2 actually the wheel I was going to install has 4 3/4 also and the pattern is larger yet, probably 5 inch or larger. Go figure I have an oddball.

Herb, Looks like my assumption was incorrect. Most Mopars use the 4 1/2" bolt pattern except Imperial and,I thought, some earlier DeSoto wagons. If it isn't 4 1/2" it has the heavier Imperial rear end with a 5 1/2" dia. and the studs on the drum are 9/16. Les
Yes I believe it is Imperial bolt pattern. The lugs are 9/16. Going to have to find Imperial wheels to fit it.
Les, Thank You for your input!

The link To Coker Tire is a good ideal from
Steve. Contact Coke Tire and let them know
that part of this years National De Soto's
Convention in July is that attendies will be at
Their Place ... and could they offer you some
type "of deal".
If they do, contact The Convention Staff to
see if they may want to or can add others
to the ~.
