Default Re: Painted steel 14x7 XT wheels body color

I believe it became common practice to paint wheels body color when equipped with dog dish in all divisions by 1969. In Earlier years,notably 1966 Only Oldsmobile and Buick painted the wheels to match the car. Olds assembly manual verifies the painting procedure. Could also have varied by plant. Chevrolet stayed with black wheels. Passing this along from a Chevy buddy. Cant speak for Pontiac in the mid 60's
