View Full Version : 67 camaro rings and caps johnny67 Mar 18th, 06, 12:47 AM Are the rings and caps for 67 stainless or chrome finish for correctness. Also did the ring have a step lip or a round lip? I'm trying to figure out which ones to buy from classic industries! johnny67 Mar 19th, 06, 02:46 AM which reproduction rings and caps would be the most correct for my 67 from the classic industries catalog 2006? ( I know the GM ones are the best but I don't want to spend a $1000) CFunK Mar 20th, 06, 06:18 PM Are the rings and caps for 67 stainless or chrome finish for correctness. Also did the ring have a step lip or a round lip? I'm trying to figure out which ones to buy from classic industries! Step lip is correct. What size rims are you asking about? 14's 15's? johnny67 Mar 20th, 06, 09:55 PM I have 15x7 up front and 15x8 on the back. CFunK Mar 20th, 06, 11:10 PM You ain't gonna find a step ring for a 15x8. I have never found a step ring for an 8" rim. Would love for someone to prove me wrong. I have the same combo and wanted my trim rings to match, so I went with the "round" lip trim rings. To answer your first question, the caps are stainless. johnny67 Mar 20th, 06, 11:13 PM page 595 of classic industries 2006 camaro catolog has a 15x8 ring with the step for $108 ea. CFunK Mar 21st, 06, 09:22 AM You mean PN G8241? johnny67 Mar 21st, 06, 10:48 PM yes its G8241 pg 595 but on Adobe its on pg 599. I guess they did not have them available when you were looking to buy them. Is that why you went with the round lip? what do they mean when they say the 15x7 ring and the 15x8 will not match. Is it the width of the ring. In 1967-81CamaroCarParts.com catalog it list a 15x7 ring that will match 15x8. CFunK Mar 22nd, 06, 09:39 AM I think they mean the lip won't match. I called them yesterday to inquire about the lip on that PN but the guy was less than helpful and said he would have to pull the trim ring and call me back in a couple of days. I am not positive the ring in question is a step lip ring. I went with the rounded lip because at the time (3 years ago) I couldn't find a step lip 15x8 ring. 69 L 89 RAG Mar 22nd, 06, 10:02 PM Other than the 67 z/28, all 67's came from the factory with 14 inch wheels. So if your into correctness you should be looking for rims too. ;) johnny67 Mar 22nd, 06, 10:55 PM yes your right. What I am trying to do is act like I'm ordering a car from 67 and putting on all the options that I like. So maybe we have to come up with a term for that! lol I'm going for the "spirit" of correctness |
