You should look at the American Racing Vintage wheels. They're aluminum (much lighter), come in 15" and 17" sizes with custom offsets (to fill out your wheel wells), and reasonably priced. Here's a pic.

Why are you asking for original or repo rims when these never came in 15" versions originally? Good luck in your search for used or new repo rims.

I've been pricing 17' and 18" wheels and the price wasn't too bad in this size range. I guess I never priced shopped in the 15" size. I bought a set of steel 15" SSIIs w/the bolt on center caps for my project, but they won't clear my brake upgrades so I'm looking for 17" & 18" options that look somewhat original. Good luck with your search.

Thumbs up

I had a set of 14" SS1 wheels (14 x 7) made into 15" SS1 wheels using the original centers.


2 were made into 15 x 7, and 2 were made into 15 x 8


The company who did them is Rally America in California.

Great folks to deal with.
