steel wheel decode
Can anyone ID a steel wheel for me? Code XC..they are on a 69 Chevelle 300 post. The car has drum brakes all around. Will these wheels clear disc brakes? Thanks.

Re: steel wheel decode
Those are 1969 Chevelle Base model rims,also used on 1965-68 Passenger & Wagons.All without Disk brakes.
I have one here that looks like it would fit.It has a one inch offset,but I can't be certain...

Re: steel wheel decode
If it cross references back to '65, I'll bet it won't clear discs. They're pretty easy to identify, as the disc brake wheel outer rim pretty much stays flat from the inner wheel lip to the inside mounting surface. Drum brake wheels tend to taper inward toward the center at a slant, roughly similar to the drum that fits inside of it.
