OE 15" steel wheels...rare?

[mean_maverick]

Aquired a set of 15" steel wheels and havent noticed that most of the steel wheels on 68 or so B-bodies are 14". anyone have any insight?

You have seen that because the standard wheel was a 14' wheel. the hemi cars came with 15" wheels and other special order situations.
What you have in the way of 15'' wheels, could have come from anything,60's C bodies, and as many 70's cars came with 15's. it is all about the size and inscriptions by valve to determine those application.
observe, compare, research, read, learn !

Measure the mounting area (diameter) for the dog dish cap, early wheels are 9 3/4" later are 8 3/4", or very often referred to as 9" and 10"

I thought the split was pre 68 large size.

I've been told the split was 1968: 10"=67-OLDER, 9"=1968-NEWER
