Re: XT Wheel Stamp
Stefano sorry you are in the house of pain. The IF wheel apprears to be the exact same wheel, just the Pontiac version I believe. Also beware there is an actual "repro" of the XT wheel on the market . I haven't seen them personally, but I know they are out there now. Stop by if you want to look over some original wheels in person for reference.

Re: XT Wheel Stamp
I'm interested in buying IF or those repop XT wheels if I find the vendor. My 69 Camaro came with 14" wheels, but Im still not certain what specs they are (14x6"??). I would like to simulate a realistic factory look....
Below pic is as I bought and before misc detailing and adding of accurate parts and pieces.......

Re: XT Wheel Stamp
Chuck, 14 x 7 steel wheels would be correct. Haven't seen the repops yet..someone told me they had some at Carlisle last year..not sure.. IF wheels are a good choice if you can find them. If you are not worried about codes then consider having Stockton Wheel make you some. They made me a set of 15 x 7 using old 14" wheels and then modifying. 4 1/2" backspacing...they look good and you can run a 15" wheel/tire..tw

Re: XT Wheel Stamp
Thanks to all, I have the above car, now back in Seattle. I have never driven on the above tires as they are some brand X bias ply.....I have been driving(Power Tour,Fred Gibb)on the 15" Rallies & Goodrich TA's (Black Wall out).......but would like to come up with a wheel/tire combo that I can drive to local shows this summer....I'm already upside down($$)with car, so as usual I'm too cheap, to buy correct Goodyear repops....just not sure what direction to go with 14" tires...I could use the 14" Firestone repops I bought from COKER (for my 70 L-78)
later,

Re: XT Wheel Stamp
IF wheels were used in 69 at the VanNuys Plant on Camaros. My buildsheet can confirm that and so does the CRG site.
