wanted: Olds Rally wheels

Hey CO,
I'm looking for a set of Oldsmobile Rally wheels for my 1972 Cutlass.
A full set of 4 or 5 would be awesome.

First choice would be Oldsmobile Rally II wheels in 15x7.
I believe 15x8 Rallies would also work for this application.

-I'm planning on running these with no rings, no inserts and no caps.
Like this:

So some plain wheels with no trim is the goal.

-It'd be cool if they were already black, as that's what I'm trying to run.
If I have to powder coat or paint them, that'll work too.

I'm in the San Francisco Bay Area.
I'd prefer to find them local or with in a few hours drive of my location to avoid shipping such large and heavy items.
If shipping is the only way to get it done, then that's what we'll do...

Please let me know what you have.
Feel free to reply here, PM me here on CO or email me, please.

I would ask to see some pictures before I could commit to buying...
My email is cesoner@gmail.com

I'm a serious buyer and promise not to waste your time!

Thank you

Just so we're all clear, THIS is a "Rally II" wheel, and it was made by Pontiac.



If you are looking for Oldsmobile Super Stock wheels, the only difference between SSII and SSIII is the paint color. Bolt-in centers were used for 1968-1974, with snap-in centers used from 1975-up. The only available factory sizes are 14x6, 14x7, and 15x7. 15x8s are aftermarket only, if you can find them.

Thank you. I've heard them referred to so many different says, I was way off.
I want a 15x7 version of the rims in the picture I posted.
Assuming the pictured wheel is an OEM Oldsmobile rally rim,
Would this be an SS II wheel?

Much appreciated

SS III would be paint matched to the car's body color?
Or what is the color difference between II and III ?

Thx

I am trying to find a set of 15x7 also and 15x8 are rare. 14"s are not too plentiful but I know there are a couple of 14" sets near Stockton, one SSII and one SSIII.

Awesome thank you! I'll be in touch when I'm able to buy.
I had a major setback this week.
My chassis broke at the suspension in the front on the Rh side.
It has put a major beating on my wallet this week...
I'll be recovering for the next 2-3 weeks from it.
Thanks for your patience...
