WANTED 15 X 5.5 CORVETTE STEEL WHEELS 1963-1967

Yes - the date code on my wheel is stamped on the inside.

FYI - here's the wheel/non-dot tire

Bruce, I love real tires . 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

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.

[/ QUOTE ] The going rate for real 65/6 steel wheels in excellent condtion now is 250 each.

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.
