I am seeking 14x7 Steel wheels that LOOK like XT's. According to above CRG link only IF's share this appearance.
If anyone knows diffently, please advise.
Wheels are for my 69 COPO clone and code dates are unimportant.
Wheels in below pic that came with car are 14x6 of undetermined origin
Price is an issue.......FYI
If I get desparate enough I might use some 70's style 14x7 and fool most people........

Thanks, Chuck

JZ wheels are almost identical to XTs and IFs. A little harder to find, but not very expensive (yet).

Good luck, BCD.

I know someone with some good rally wheels.

They have the following codes on them:

YV
YW
XG
XG

Not sure what they are for though?

YV is a 14X6 Rally wheel and came on 1969 Chevelle base w/Disc brakes 2nd design rim.It has a deeper offset then the XG.

YW is a 14X6 Rally wheel and came on 1969 Chevelle w/Disc brakes,also with same offset as YV.

XG is a 14X6 Rally wheel with a shallower offset then the YV & YWand came on 1968-69 Camaros w/Disc brakes and also came on 1968 Chevy II & 69-70 Nova w/o SS.
