Default ID these 1967 Rally wheels

Are these original production 1967 MY rally wheels? They are stamped with the large "DC" by the valve stem, have "15X6 JK" on the OD of the rim.

Just want to be sure these are correct before I have the body shop strip and paint them and mount a new set of DB redline radials on them.

They look like correct Kelsey Hayes DC coded '67 wheels. Dennis

Looks real to me. If you havent used them before I would check and make sure they are round and true before you put money into painting them

Good point. They look good but I'm going to have the shop check them before we strip and paint. Right now the car has repro rallys with riveted rims and Coker radials, which need to go.

years ago dad pieced a set of DC together at Carlisle to do the same thing. but after all were painted and ready to go, mounted a tire went to balance it and it would not until they had to use a bunch of weights. turned out the wheel was bent ever so slightly
