Average price...

Not that I would sell them, but if I what's the avg value for a complete (Set of,4) Super Stock wheels,. They are in good shape with the snap in center caps and trim rings are all in good shape. For the record, they are for a '72 Supreme

Thanks,
Dave

Since the wheels you have use the snap on center caps, they are SSIII's and are not original to your 72 Supreme... The 72 used a bolt on center cap... As for determining value, are the wheels 14x6 or 14x7??? The 14x7 snap on cap wheel would have a higher value then the 14x6 since they were not produced as long as the 14x6... IMO, you would be lucky to get $150/$200 for a set of four14x6 wheels, 14x7's $250/$350 provided the trim rings and caps are in good condition... It's the trim rings and caps that add most of the value...

The value is in the 15" rims. 14's not so much.

I have several sets of 14 inch wheels. They are very difficult to sell. Easier to give them away. LOL

I bought one set of 5 15x7 SSIII wheels for $250 and another set of 4 for $200. Both sets had complete trim rings, inserts, and center caps.

Just to correct this misconception, no, SSII/III does NOT refer to bolt-in vs. snap-in. It only refers to argent vs. lower body color. Here's a page from the 1972 SPECS booklet that clearly shows that RPO N66 was argent and called SSII and RPO N67 was body color and called SSIII. In both cases they used bolt-in centers.

The wheels I have are painted to match the green vinyl top and green interior, and they are 15 inch. Not sure of the width, but I'm guessing they are 7 inches wide. The caps are definitely snap in and the trim rings are chrome. There is some sort of code stamped on the inside and it reads "OD Made in Canada Z 1 18 4". According to the chart above and the CSM, 15 inch wheels were not even an option on my car. So it would appear that the wheels I have are not OEM for my Cutlass, am I right?

And if anyone could give me a break down of that code, I'd appreciate it😀

True the wheels are not original to the car. The snap on cap 15" SS2/3 wheels are mid 70s to newer but are similar enough to the OE 14" bolt on cap that most wouldn't notice.

you might get 3-400 for 15" ss snap on cap rims w half decent tires locally might get 2-300 for just the rims if ship is required.

bolt on cap 15" rims will bring good money depending on completeness and condition maybe 3-800

bolt or snap on ss rims in 14" are hard to give away and make a good hose holder for the garage.

Soooo, what's this Sumpreme thing?? Ohhh, a typo. Sorry, couldn't resist. If you're not going to sell them don't worry about the price. 15" is a great option size to have for your car and gives more choices of rubber selection.

Lol..I posted that when I was about 2 winks away from dreamland. And I agree, they are a great option size, even if they're not original for my car.

Agreed. Unless you have a non-driver, show-only car the 15” wheels are a much better choice and most folks won’t even be able to tell the difference.
