Tigers have 4 X 4-1/4" bolt pattern. Early Corvairs have a 4-1/2" bolt
pattern. Late Corvairs are 5 bolt. So, it wouldn't be a simple bolt on
affair.
The comments did mention Cosmics which came on my Tiger. I have the
mentioned American Racing Libre on my Datsun 510.
Certain steel factory wheels are getting pricey too. A nice set of Mopar
Cop Car wheels with drilled hubcaps are in the $400 range. I have a set
of those on my Valiant. SSP wheels and hubcaps from the Fox body Mustang
police cars are in a similar price range. These fit the Tiger's 4 X
4-1/4". Look alike wheels came on the more common late 80's T-Bird. I
have a set of those for the Tiger too. I think Jere Teppen had them on
his old Sunbeam. So many people had alloys on their Datsun Z cars that
the factory steel Topy wheels were a disposable afterthought but are now
pricey. I have three of those (and looking) for my Corvair station wagon.

Interesting comment at the end of the article.<br>
One Corvair(?) guy wishes he had a rare and expensive set of
Corvair "HANDS" wheels.<br>
He doesn't know those are the same as our LAT-70s which are
remanufactured<br>
by Sunbeam Specialties for a resonable price.<br>
