Both were optional wheels in 1969.

Olds even came out with an SSI for disc brakes late in the production year. The earlier SSI wheels fit only drum brakes. The earliest 14X6 SSI for disc brakes I've seen or heard about was dated April 2, 1969. I understand the disc brake SSI was produced into early July 1969 before production shifted to the 1970 SSI. If you have a set of disc brake SSI wheels for a '69 A-body, you've got something that's hard to find these days.
