Anyone know where I can find the codes for steel wheels?
I have these steeleys & don't know what they are for:

1. GM 5 bolt hole 15x6 "RF"
2. gm 5 bolt hole 14X6 "29 A"

Thanks in advance
Derek

I located a camaro site that has some. you'd have to google as I don't have the url handy.

assembly manuals also contain the codes.

RF code: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NOS-75-Olds-...890a6e&vxp=mtr

Is it possible the other one is just an "A" code wheel? This is from a post I found here:

I was also told that at some time the J-88 also used a 14x6 rim with code A.

I currently have 3 of rims in the garage, code A., 14x6 JK (6" is bead to bead), 1.00 offset, center section stamped gm 64 or gm 65 (Not sure which).

I have also read that some of the Pontiac's, gto for example used the same rim, although the stamped code could be different. Just read last night from a Pontiac restoration guide that they used gm 3871919 for the 64-67 got; but you know there are lots of errors out there on the internet.

Derek, are you sure the code is 29 A, is there something to the right of the valve stem? Any stampings on the tire side of the rim?
