Those aren't actually rallye wheels. You are correct, GM never made rallyes in anything but 15". The base wheel you refer to for 88-98s are known as "Styled Steel Wheels". May sound like splitting hairs but a name is a name and although they have a similar look, they are a departure from the traditional wheel profile and the beginning of something new, being flat with big backspace. and that brings us to the smaller center hole and the fact that they will be way tucked in on a pre-88. I see the styled steel wheels as fwd design and rallyes as rwd design. Also, they were only used on 4wds.
