Hey Guys..., Lots of great information here, but I didn't see what I'm looking for. I have a 1970 Camaro that I want to run the basic steel wheels with hubcaps. I found a crusty set of 4 steel wheels from a 69, but all you can make out by the valvestem is a 9,. The guy that has them pointed out they do have the doublehumps near the valvestem ( ?? ) which I guess is correct for a '69. Does anyone know if there is difference between these and a what I need according to ( NastyZ ) which is a set of CL #362052 --- Thanks in advance

Smokey, welcome to the site..... :thumbsup:
If you want "absolutely correct" wheels, there are quite a few visual differences between CL wheels and the other 14x7 wheels like JZ, EM, UC, and the 69-70 IF and XT. If you just want close wheels, the JZ, EM and UC would pass for CL wheels if no one gets too close. The 69-70 XT and IF wheels have very visually different centers and outer rims though. Offset is close enough on all of them to interchange without a problem.

Hello Jon, Thanks for the great info. Something about the 69 wheels is different but I'm not sure what. Maybe they are XT's or IF's and the outer housing is different, but since I'm trying to get the proper look on my '70, I'll keep looking for some CL's, unless I find some JZ, EM or UC's first -- Thanks again ! I appreciate your knowledge.
