Do you guys know for sure if the early 60s Malibu Chevelle dog dishes will work on 70s-80s GM 5 lug steelies?? TRADITION NEVER DIES!

Well after a little net surfing, I found that these wheels may be '65 Buick steelies. Now I'm wondering if I can actually use some dog dish caps...
Does anyone know what these wheels are from? I just picked these up on CL and are 15x6 5 on 5. I thought they were 70s era stock GM truck wheels,...
