I need some guidance with the following wheel codes:

EM, CL, UC. I believe these are 14 x 7. What can they be used on?

Thanks for the help.

CL is 70 Camaro for sure, maybe Malibu too

UC is later, like 76 and later Nova cop cars maybe others

EM don't know

I believe the offset is the same on all of them, but they have different centers from the XT and IF wheels so they would be easy to spot for anyone that is up on their wheels.

Check the dates on each,as they were used varyingly.
All are 14X7 rims..
EM-used on 1973 Nova SS/Camaro SS,and 1974 Nova/Camaro.
CL-used on 1970 Camaro SS,and 71-72 Camaro SS/Nova SS.
UC-used on 1975 Nova/Camaro with the space saver spare tire.

Thanks for the help. I was looking for a set of XT's and someone offered me a set of the above mentioned coded for a old steel wheel look. I don't care about matching dates. So will these codes wheels fit a 69 / 70 Nova?

Some have a different offset & Construction.
XT has .40 offset & Welded
CL has .34 offset & Welded
EM has .34 offset & Trued Center
UC has .34 offset & Trued Center

Does your Nova have disc brakes?

front disc. So if original XT's aren't needed will the variation of the others work?

They'll work. All those other cars could have come with disks, so no problem there.

IF coded wheels are the same as XT

The IF and XT along with the JZ will all take the 68-70 hub cab. If you use the EM, CL, or UC they take a different hub cap.
