Those are the correct wheels that Pontiac in Canada offered for our cars. The only difference is the center caps. They look like this:

There is no doubt. The Pontiac small center caps (as pictured above) are easily the coolest looking cap ever made for those wheels.

I have owned many sets of those over the years, and foolishly sold every set...

I was lucky to get 5 of them so even my spare will get one. If anyone has a decent 15X7 rally wheel they'd be willing to part with, let me know. I bought 4 from Coker but still need 1 for the spare. I figured I'd just get a used one and sandblast/paint it. Thanks to Ken in Welland, I even have a NOS bias ply redline to use!

P235/60R-15     I have that size mounted on 2 extra 15x7's                     I will check this morn, I might have a extra...biggrinconfusedidea

Hey everyone, I'm the new kid in the group, and I have to say that this site was a long time coming. Someone finally realizing that the Canadian Pontiac is something quite special. I've got a '64 Parisienne Custom Sport Convertible (gotta get a pic of it up) and just read the info on the center caps. I have the ralleye rims also with teh GM (ughh) center caps. Had seen a set wya back for PMD but never picked them up. Great info and hope this site takes off.

Thanks for the welcome!! I wish it was a 409! It's got the simple but reliable 283 with the two speed Powerglide. Nothing too fancy but cruises nice, and does't cost me a bunch to take out.

Welcome Richard. You have the same full name as my wife's cousin from Steinbach but I don't think he has a64 Custom Sport ragtop. There is a couple of car nut brothers in his family though.

Enjoy this place. And we will make sure you hear about our next Manitoba gathering of this group. It may be at our place here near Morris so I hope you're up for a short road trip to have a coffee with some car guys!

Carl-do you still have this rally rim for sale ? is it a disc brake rim ? I have one 14 x 6 and two 14 x 5's-so one more 14 x 6 would do me good-the code at the valve stem on mine is YW,  XB is the same all I care is that they have a similar offset
