Bolt pattern is the same. Heavy duty truck wheels may be the larger bolt
pattern.

You may very well be right, Rick.  Hadn't thought of the bolt pattern - it
may be 5-inch vs. 4.75-inch.

I'm pretty sure that the Impala used a larger wheel bolt pattern than the
chevelle.  I don't think that is the easy answer.

Thanks Dale,

Maybe an Impala SS 15" wheel and cover is the answer.

That is the way I have always removed heater hoses and this one is so tight
I am hoping to find a better way.

Available?  Yes in the aftermarket, no from Chevrolet.  Tire sizes for 1965
Chevelles included 6.95x14, 7.35x14 and 7.75x14.  The full size car had
15-inch wheels (15x5 or 15x5.5 for police cars) in 65 according to my parts
book. There was also a 3-bar spinner wheel cover available on the full size
SS.

The best way to remove old heater hose, in my opinion, is to (1)
loosen/remove clamp then (2) with a box cutter type knife, slit the hose
lengthwise while it's on the heater core bung.  Slitting the hose also makes
it easier to remove from the fittings on the intake and/or water pump as
well.

  Not stock there wasn't.  Chevelles didn't get 15" wheels until '71 I 
think.  I'm not well versed on the later models.  I'm sure you could put a 15" 
wheel on a '65 though.  Hopefully Clint will chime in, he's the wheel & tire 
guru. 8-)
