What could these be from? They are 15x6 Rallys stamped "GM" and "K1". The only stamp near the valve is a big "B".
Any ideas?

View Full Version : "B" code 15x6 GM Rally Wheels? Brentmc Dec 5th, 06, 08:11 PM What could these be from? They are 15x6 Rallys stamped "GM" and "K1". The only stamp near the valve is a big "B". Any ideas? wagonman Dec 5th, 06, 09:26 PM are you sure they are 15x6? is the tire off? it will have a 15x6 on the rim as well Brentmc Dec 5th, 06, 09:29 PM The tire is off and I checked the inside of the rim--there are no obvious markings inside. I looked for a "JJ" but don't see it. I may have to clean them up a bit more to find something. I'm estimating their size based on them being 1" shorter than teh 15x7 rallys I already have. al8apexer Dec 5th, 06, 11:29 PM 1967 and 1968 full size Chevy's used that size, so did the 67 & 68 Z and the 67 Corvette not sure what the correct code is, but that SIZE was used on those cars Brentmc Dec 6th, 06, 05:03 AM Hmmmm....but what are "B" code rally wheels..? bertfam Dec 6th, 06, 07:37 AM Brent, Perhaps they're actually "DB", "XB" or "YB" rally wheels that the person stamping them went too close to the valve stem hole and "missed", so you can't see the first letter? How many wheels do you have with this on it? The only wheel I could find coded with a single "B" was a 14x5 "standard" wheel used on various cars from 65-69.

Brentmc Dec 6th, 06, 09:02 AM What does "JJ" mean?? "JJ" is on the 15x7 wheels on the inside of the rim Brentmc Dec 6th, 06, 09:03 AM Ed, Thanks--I will post pics tonight--the "B" is much larger than the typical 2-digit stamping. I'm wondering if GM sold these as over-the-counter rims or something not directly connected to a specific car... wagonman Dec 6th, 06, 01:52 PM can you post a pic of the rims? Df is the code for the 15x6 camaro wheel. JohnZ Dec 8th, 06, 05:25 PM Hmmmm....but what are "B" code rally wheels..? VERY early '67 Corvettes used a "B" 15x6 rally wheel, then they changed to "DC". :thumbsup: JohnZ Dec 8th, 06, 05:26 PM What does "JJ" mean?? "JJ" is the SAE code for the contour of the rim drop-section. :thumbsup: Brentmc Dec 8th, 06, 10:09 PM Thanks John. I couldn't find the info anywhere on the web. Here are pics of the codes on the wheel: http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a253/brentmc/Wheels/b1.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a253/brentmc/Wheels/b3.jpg |
