Default C3 wheels - Rally or P01?

Is there a difference to the actual steel wheels if you ordered Rally or P01 hub caps?

i.e is the silver steel wheel the same no matter which option you choose and a it's just the beauty rings and centre caps for Rally and full covers for P01 hubcaps which are interchangeable?

And thus completely interchangeable. I have a set of each Rally wheels and PO2s that I interchange depending on my whim Ike.

Bill they were enjoying time lost in that warehouse from the raiders of the lost ark movie run by the USPS. But they eventually showed up and after some clean up look good!!! Thanks again! A nice different look from the rallies. They do weigh a ridiculous amount though and I am not sure if that effects your handling!! Take your pick!!!Ike

The wheel is the same but cars originally equipped with P01/P02's have valve stem extensions from the factory.

Nice Bill they look great. I set up the 1969 to be the "opposite" of the 1972 as much as I could. Convertible vs t topped coupe, Rear vs side exhausts, rallies vs PO2, fender flairs vs none, etc. I like the contrasts of the two cars as to what GM could deliver and how they proceeded to evolve the C3. Thanks again for the PO2s..Ike
