Factory white spoke wheels: information anyone??

For a 2WD application. FACTORY white spoke wheels with the bolt on center cap. Does any one know all the sizes these came in? ie: 15 x 6", 7", 8" ?
Is the bolt on center cap the same as the more popular silver styled wheel of the same era?? Would like to find a set of these.


Thanks,

Steve weim55 Colorado

Can't answer your questions but I will post a picture of my "Brand New" never used spare
from my 77 Chevy Sport. Larry
P.S. Maybe by looking at the picture you can determine some of the answers.

Looks like the cap bolts on from the back. (?) I think the silver ralley caps bolt on from the front?

They are 8" wide wheels. They are stamped under the tire I believe. My friend has a set he might sell if you're looking?

Thanks man, no not looking to buy a set, in fact, I think I have a set so I'm trying to get more data on them to see if the ones I have are authentic

The caps were common between the spoke wheel and the argent rally wheel.

The design did change from bolts in back to bolts in front but they all changed at the same time.

Yes there is a code on it with size and who built it. IIRC-Kelsey-Hayes made the wheel. Larry
