I have a friend who has a set of 15x7 wheels, and will trade me, for my 15x7 steel wheels and dog dish caps.. What the history of the Rally II wheels? Did they come stock on 70's Trans Ams? Carl
Pontiac Rally II wheels were first available in 1967 I believe . In my humble opinion I think they set the standard for factory optional wheels.
We would need to consult the sales information on the Trans Am package for 1970 but I would think that they were part of it so in essence standard on the Trans Am. Rally Wheels have always been optional or part of package. The Judge and LeMans GT's for example came with "ringless" Rally II wheels as part of their "poor mans" persona.
I agree that they set the standard for a factory wheel in the 60's. I still have a set on my 79 Trans Am. They are the only wheel that looks good with or without the trim rings.

I've got and extra set of 4 in my shed with rings and centres I've had since about 1988. Took them off my 76 FB just before it went bye bye. So if you have 4 like new I'd say that's like winning Lotto 649.
As 'eeluddy' said they look good with or without rings. You will notice that the Feature Car is "ringless", it is a matter of choice but I like the bare look. I think going without rings would look good on say a 2dr post car like a Ventura.

Hey Carl.Just picture the same tire /car combo with fresh correct painted ( 2 tone grey & silver)Rallye II's without the trim ring. Todd, whuddya think?
Yes I like to know.. I thought the rally II would be a better deal, than the steel wheels.. I have Pontiac rallys like Todds .. What would you use on a half breed Ventura with Cdn motor?

and with trim rings!! and here is chrome set, I have, to put on something...I bought (and can get more) Stainless Steel TRIM RINGS $63.95 plus shipping and tax about 90.00 a set if you guys need any Carl
I bought the TAN car, and am getting Pontiac Rally II with it, but now have a chance to get yellow car, instead.. Rally II would look good? helps price to take off Torque Thrusts. .
