Bruce, I love real tires https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/drool.gif. I believe that your wheels/tires are for a 63/4 corvette. 6.70 15 was the size for those years. They went to 775/15 in 65. Also the configuration of your wheel is for a 63/4. Since your wheel is dated 66 then it must be an over the counter item https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

the 5.5 wheels that are dated 57-62 are the very hard ones to find. The do not have the safety beads on the rim, they are riveted construction, and the 8080 was the intended replacement for those I believe.

Just think, 10 years ago no one would pay money for these rims.

I saw a 65 or 66 Corvette nos spare tire/wheel combination at a swap meet about two weeks ago and the rim <u>did not</u> have any nubs to hold a dog dish cap. He was asking $450.00 for it but I did not get his name or number, sorry.
