Chrome SSI's - 14x7
Anybody know the story on the availability/rarity of these rims? I have heard that they were only available on 1971 SX's. Also heard that their use in 71 was related to the strike. The stamping on these rims shows a mfg date in 1969 which seems kind of early to have been used in 71. One of the 4 still has a tag from the Motor Wheel Corporation. Any value to these rims given their limited availability? Thanks.

I ended up with a nice pair of those when I bought a lot of SSI's a while back. Almost the same stamping, except mine say 878. They were 71 only and will clear discs. I figures I could use them in back with some wider meat.

Ok. It looks like 879 in the pic. so we have the same wheels. The only thing I see in mine and yours is there is no GM stamp, just a funny thing that looks like Prince made them.
I'm no wheel expert by any means, so maybe that's the way they are.
