Re: 15x8 rallys?

Stock or OEM rallys are 15x6.5 van rallys or 15x8 truck rallys, both have 4.25 backspace. I believe there are some earlier rallys that are 15x7(73-76) that the center cap was attached by bolts/screws from the back side, these may or may not be threaded for 77-87 center caps. Im not 100% sure on the 15x7s.

Aftermarket rallys have the same centers as 77-87 rallys but have a variety of widths and back spacing.

Re: 15x8 rallys?

I have 15x8s with 275/60/15s. It, in my mind, is the best looking wheel combination that I have ever seen.

Here's 15/8s with 255/60-15 all the way around and for now 3" drop all the way around.

Re: 15x8 rallys?

Here's my 87 with 15x8 rallys and 275/60s. The second pic is the set I have for my 68. The third pic is of 15x7 rallys. The center cap bolts on just like the 15x8s do. I have 2 sets of the 15x7 rallys with centers.

Re: 15x8 rallys?

Here's my 85 with the original 15x8's (had them powder coated and replaced the trim rings and center caps) with 31x10.50's. Just replaced the spare with a rally I got off ebay from hubcap heaven in Nashville. Think it was $40 / free shipping. Local yard was picked clean and I would have burned more than $40bucks in gas to get to the next one! I'd say hit your local yard(s) and if not, hit pomona or ebay but I wouldn't pay more than $150 or so for a set. $350 is a joke...
