RE: Looking for help in choosing rims


X2!
I believe it looked even more awesome when it had Rallyes (if my memory serves me.) Which begs the question... I know that '67 Beaumont's were available with the Ralley wheels... Were Pontiacs?

I had  67 canadian 2+2 badly rusted parts car that came with discs.  Sold it to Vince but I did keep the 4 OEM rallys from it. I am sure they were original.  They are 15 x 5's (which I have never seen before) with a thin beauty ring and the small non badged caps.

Gonna run them on the electric willys!

Certain models of both A and B Body Pontiacs were available with Rallye wheels, identical centre caps. While Chevrolet spells the word Rallye I believe that in Pontiac literature you will find Rally.

Thanks for that bit of Info Rat Boy...LoL!

I was at Costco today, and priced out a set of BF T/A Radials for her too..so apparently the rims will arrive tomorrow via Greyhound..and I'll order the tires as well..then in about a week when they come in Costco will install, balance and fill with Nitrogen!!

You're right Wes,

I can't wait to get them on! Unfortunately, it will mean I'll only get to drive her a few times with the new tires and rims on before having to put her away for the winter as I'm off on a course in early Sept till early November....but at least I will get to drive them a few times....

Too late now,but where do you get $1200 for torque thrust D's??? You can get them from Summit for around $700 /4 whls. Thats where i got mine on 52 & my Cragar's S/S's on the Catalina. You have to go US or get "ripped" here!! Performance Imp.Oshawa, wanted over double what I paid Summit for the S/S's!!!! Still saved $$ by going there & picked them + some other stuff, & had a wknd. away!! Gotta do that thru the winter too stay sane!!!!
