It came as a spare for my 72 Chevelle. It is a 15" rim wth a 205/75/15 tire that has never hit the ground. Rim is about 7" wide.

Looks like a 68-70 Chevelle version Magnum 500 style wheel to me. Those came painted more often than chromed. Is it typical Chevy 4-3/4" BP?

Stan, judging from the brand of tire mounted on that rim, could that rim be a after-market reproduction??? any codes stamped on the rim???
