I am still having a problem finding a spare wheel for my 1982 corvette
15 x5 steel wheel stamped "YA"
does anyone have an interchange manual to see if this wheel will match another chevy model 's spare?
THANKS

The Corvette wheel is Corvette...I don't believe other rims will fit.(offset/backspacing, and they have to clear the Corvette calipers))
Do you have to have the space-saver rim, or are you simply looking for something to mount a spare tire?

In that case, you can get a regular Ralley rim, or a Corvette alloy rim, and mount your spare tire on it. The spare tire tub is adjustable to fit the stock sized aluminum rim/tire.
