 I am working on two 69 Z28s with build dates of 05A and 06A can someone  help me with the date codes on the wheels I Should be looking for ? thanks

Ron C.

you should have dates prior to the build date of the car, 1 or 2 months before is ok.Im not sure how far back the dates will be accepted but 1 to 2 months is about right.

I know the wheels on the 05A car should be 2-26 or 4-18 but the 06A car I have no idea . Does anyone have an original 05A and 06A 69Z with the original wheels that can help me Thanks.

2-26 on my 03D, this is for sure.

Luke knows his  wheel dates.

There is a May wheel, but I dont know the exact date.I dont believe there is a June wheel.

Chris your 2-26 wheels are correct for your 03D car I have seen many 03D and 03E cars with that date. The 2-26 wheel and the 4-18 wheel seems to split in the first week of May somewhere. There are three may wheels that I know of and no June wheels that I know of. Does anyone else out there have an 05A Z with the original wheels ? thanks Luke

I have the YH wheels on my car too.  I'd be curious to know what the interest is all about.  Are they anything special?

They were also used on Monte Carlo's in 1970. When purchasing verify year designation as well.

My wheels must be swaped on to the car some time over the years.  Z28 was the only one that came with a 15" wheel...right?  SS cars had 14" wheels only...right?

Same wheel, but most of the Monte Carlo rally wheels were stamped "FW".
