YS 15 by 6 inch Rallies
 
Anyone know what a YS rally wheel came stock on? They are 15 by 6 inch wheels.

YS is 1969 Chevrolet passenger with disc brakes. This code replaced DC which was used for the 15x6 rally in 1967 and 1968.

I don't have a book to check Steve but also remember I think taking original 15x6 YS off 67 corvette, 68/69 chevelle, 69 elcamino amd camaro when we were looking for original DC's and got fooled with the YS ones
Is that possible

Hi Joe,
That could be possible. I can't find my Colvin book either. Did the wheels look to be the originals to the cars?

YS were never used on '67 Corvettes; some VERY early cars used "B", the rest used "DC" or "DG".

The YS wheels were the GM service replacements for the 67 corvette were they not since you could not buy a DC over the counter even in 67. The DC and YS are dimensionally identical with a +.06 offset. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif
