K18807DC

K= Kelsey Hayes, 1=Romulus MI plant, 8=1968 8 07 = Aug 7th, (small) DC is application code, likely '69 Chevy

K15515YS

K= Kelsey Hayes, 1=Romulus MI plant, 5 is incorrect; likely a 9 = 1969, 5 15= May 15th, YS is application code, likely '69 El Camino

1228

No idea

K1934YS

Kelsey Hays, Romulus, 1969, (zero or digit missing?) or perhaps March 4th, another '69 El Camino wheel
