Re: *DG* coded 15" rallyes ?
Well lets make this a little more interesting !!
I just dug them off the shelf - - and I was
partially
wrong ... I have
2
*DG* coded 15", and
2
*FW* coded 15"ers....
The *DG*'s are 15x6" and the "FW"'s are 15x7". Interestingly enough - - the slots on the two are different sizes ?? I thought it was an optical illusion (or too many beers last nite ..), but I measured them, and sure-enough the slots are different. The *DG*'s slot measures 1 1/8" x 3 1/8" and the *FW*'s slot measures 1" x 3". I can't find a date code on the *DG*'s at all, but the *FW*'s are K-1-5, so the assumption is that they are 1975. Both are Kelsey-Hayes wheels. Go figure
So now I have 2 different styles of rallye wheels that I don't know what the application is for .....
Here's some pix ....
And "YES", they are 15" rims .......
