    15X6 ralleys

    My brother has a set of these on his 67 Camaro and he asked me what else they were used on besides the 67 Z28 and 67 Corvette. I couldn't give him an answer but I figured you all might know...any thoughts?

    15 x 6" were used only on the 67 vettes. 68 vet 15 x 7 and the remainder of the early c-3's went to 15 x 8. mike

      Some Rally wheels have different offsets for different model lines.

      Not sure about the 6" and 8", but the 7" used on Corvette have -0.28" offset and those used on other lines are close to zero.

      The best way to postively ID wheels is to look at the stamped wheel code. It's usually near the valvestem hole.

          I believe the 15x6 DC coded wheel was used on 1967 Corvette as the base wheel and optionally on the full size Chevrolet. In 1968-9 it was an optional wheel on full size Chevrolets. In 1970 the same spec 15x6 wheel was used on full size Chevrolets and wagons but the code changed to YS for passenger cars and FI for wagons.

            There were a few versions of the 15x6 Rally wheel.



            Wheel Size Offset Rim GM P/N Application
            Code Code
            DB 15 X 5 + 0.22 JJ 3901696-D 67 Passenger Car with DB


            DF 15 X 6 + 0.50 JK 3914894-D 67-68 Camaro Z28


            DC(early) 15 X 6 + 0.06 JK 3968733-D 67-70 Passenger Car
            FI (late) 67-70 Station Wagon


            DC 15 X 6 + 0.06 JK 3901698-D 67 Corvette
            3968773-D


            The Z28 wheels were not the same as the Corvette, but the full size cars were. Notice that there was a 15x5 on the full size, which must have been interesting to drive with it so narrow.
