there not late 90'* rims. they are from 86-90 years in Olds
maybe a torodado or a sedan. which should be 115mm bolt pattern.
but if they dont fit his Buick I would stay away as most buicks have the 115mm bolt pattern.

Edit: They say they were on a 94 LeSabre but after new brake pads they no longer fit...

Eh, brake pads MIGHT. Before the new pads, the outer part of the caliper remained closer to the brake rotor than normal. Put a new rim on, and it fits. Put new pads on, which pushes the outer caliper out, and it now strikes the rim.
Moral of the story: when going for new rims, be sure to check the backspacing requirements.
