Will those fit on a 64 plymouth valiant? It's big bolt pattern because I updated to disc from 73 dart.

Tire size is 205/70. I'm just looking at them cause they are cheap (100 bucks) and I need rollers as I get the car in order and then I will buy radials for the rallys I have.
 
Maybe. For cheap rollers I'd give em a shot.
But, I'd bet the fronts are too tall to clear at full lock, and the rears might be too close to the fender.
I'm assuming you changed the rear pattern too. If you're using adapters, all bets are off.

(Are you dead sure the wheels are 5 on 4.5? I thought a caravan was a front driver with 5 on 100.)

I'm not dead sure. When I go look at them I would measure. Read that 14s were 5 on 4.5 and 15s were 5 on 5.
 
Regardless of the bolt pattern, most FWD-based vehicles utilize wheels with much more positive offset than RWD vehicles, and my guess is that they won't work.
 
Sounds like I'm staying away. Thanks for all the help.
'96 & up Caravan/Gr.Caravans with 4.5" bolt circles have the same center hole as Your hub. As far as offset, the factory LBP disc conversion pushes the wheels out towards the fender, so the van wheels would pull them back in. Also, the van rims have plenty of caliper room, unlike the LH platform of the same era, vans had the calipers outboard ~1/4" more than the LH. RWD caliper offset is similar to LH, so brakes should clear fine, I don't have the rim offset handy at the moment. 14" 1st gen. 2WD Dakota rims are also an option, My '87 came with them, they're here somewhere.
