I have a 1968 Camaro SS 396/375 that I bought in 1975 but I have never had the stock wheels and tires on the car.It has power disc brakes, the 4 piston cal on the front. I bought it from the orig owner and he asked me if I wanted the original wheels and tires and I said no. What a idiot! Hey I was 19 and my first car but at least I did take the the original SS hood because he had a glass L88 hood on the car. I know there is a round tag on the inside of the glove box door but the car is in storage and hard to get too. The car is a Feb 4 week date .

 I am also doing a 1969 Z-28 X77 car which needs rims and tires too so what are the sizes for that car too.  Thank you everyone for all the help and infor

'69 Z/28s used two wheel codes, depending on when the car was built. Both were 15" x 7". Cars built prior to mid-Dec '68 used AD wheels; YH afterwards. A 12C build may have either.

Tire size was E70 x 15; either Firestone Sport Car 200 or Goodyear Wide Tread GT. There were no wheel/tire options; space saver spare was not available with 15" wheels.
Learning more and more about less and less...
