I have a 67 coupe with 327/350 hp, 4 speed and Rally wheels. I would like to know what wheels the car (more than likely) came from the factory with, and what's the difference between the DC, DG, and FW stampings for the 15 by 6 Rally wheel? What's the difference between the smaller DC and larger DC stamp? I've searched the forum and have not found too much regarding this subject.

Thanks for your help in advance.

From what I have seen, the larger DC and DG are what came on most '67s. The small DC coded wheels I've seen have all had service dates. I also believe the very early 67s could also be just a plain "B" instead of a DC or DG.

BTW, I do not think FW is a corvette code--maybe some other Chevy model like the Camaro?

"DC", "DG", and "B" are 15x6 '67 Corvette rally wheels with a +.06" offset; the "FW" is a '70-'72 Monte Carlo 15x7 wheel with a +.30" offset.

The "FW" 15x7 Monte Carlo wheel will put the inside edge of the tire 3/4" closer to the frame, and the outside edge of the tire 1/4" closer to the fender.

Also, the Monte Carlo wheel will not fit the rear of a car with disc brakes. It interfers with the parking brake cable bracket (and maybe the spring end). The problem can be soved with a spacer, but spacers are another whole topic!
