Ralley Wheels
 

Did 72 Blazers come from the factory with ralley wheels?

Re: Ralley Wheels
 

No the GM ralley wheels were not on GM trucks until after 75 or so. But I think they look right at home on the earlier trucks.

Re: Ralley Wheels
 

nope, ralley wheels didn't start till mid 70's ish

Re: Ralley Wheels
 

what wheels would have come on my 72 k5??
I thought that the ralleys were period correct.

Re: Ralley Wheels
 

Regular old steel wheels with hubcaps was the only option back then.
Either had full hubcaps or dog dish hubcaps.

Well,,,,,,, thats not the answere I was hoping for. I thought I had seen pics of pic ups with ralley's, but I have not seen Blazers.

Re: Ralley Wheels

Re: Ralley Wheels

Re: Ralley Wheels

Re: Ralley Wheels
 

I'm partial to those wheels too,they look right at home to me, even tho they werent available then. I'm sorta a stock appearing guy but like some updates. That is also a 70 Jimmy. Great lookin trucks and wheels, guys! Gonna try to catch up to y'all on progress!

Are the caps for those ralley wheels still available any where? They look great!

Here in BC I pay $1200-$1600 a year for insurance, but, we have somthing known as collecter insurance. If the vehicle is 25 years , or older and in very good original condition, it qualifies for this. Then insurance is about $300 for the year. I am going to get a set of my ralley's powder coated, and would realy hate to have to hide them with hub caps. I am going to try it with a 2' lift 33's and ralley's.

Here's a kind of side shot of mine

Re: Ralley Wheels
 

what about the other ralleyes, like could be found on the camaros and 'vettes? they are a bit different IIR, with different versions of center caps.

Re: Ralley Wheels
 

I think 4wd 15" 6 lug are this style

Re: Ralley Wheels
 

Here are my (2) 72 Blazers with ralley wheels.

Re: Ralley Wheels
 

Hey Pumpkin and all-
Wow, that is just wrong that they consider putting on a later model factory wheel an excuse to throw you into the high dollar insurance bracket. Of course that kind of thing is what they do best, and they get lawmakers to design laws for their profit. A seat belt law is for insurance companies to refuse claims, not nesassarily for public safety. Here in SD, there is no motorcycle helmet law but you have to have belts on in your vehicle. Go figure! By the way, I was wearin my seat belts long before it was a law! In Canada I suppose its a different situation, but I got to blow off some steam about insurance companies!

Great looking Blazer........is that Med Olive?

Re: Ralley Wheels
 

Rallyes "ARE" period-correct.They just didn`t come on the trucks until`75 or6:).They came on GM,Fomoco,and Mopar cars in this period.Aluminum slots areperiod-correct,yet never factory,see?

Re: Ralley Wheels
 

I love how this thread turned into a "let me show you how sweet ralleys look on my truck" I say rallyes were ment for the 67-72 truck even if they aren't a factory option!

Re: Ralley Wheels
 

Here is mine with nos centers and rings. I just want mine widened to 10" and i will be totally happy with them then.
