OK, I started this post and I need some clarification on the codes. I have a 04A build 68 Z/28 and it's been stored for 40 years and somewhere along the line(during several moves) all I have is 1 'Upside down large DF non dated' wheel with the original tire still mounted...Can someone tell me if it's original to the car? When did the DF change to right side up, and the dating start? JM?

It looks like march dated wheels would be for your car.They are also hard to find.All of the df wheels are dated.The early ones are dated on the inside thats why you take a picture before the tire goes on.  John p.s. like someone else said the May dated wheels are the most common ,seen alot of those

I need a set of 'upside down' DF 15x6 rally wheels. Any leads out there?

If you turn up a pair of 5/3/68's and  you pass on them, I would be interested :)

Sent you a PM but low and behold I have two May 3, 1968 wheels.  They must have batched a lot that day ;D

Yes Jerry, I have your book. I'm looking at a 12/67 dated upside down large DF wheel but there is a GM and KH stamped on the outside by the lug nut holes(no numbers). The original wheel I have has K18 and a 'sideways' GM with an 8 stamped by lug nut holes, version 3. Is the afore mentioned wheel(GM-KH) legit?

Thanks, Good looking wheel, looks like a oct 67 production.....however my last name isn't Rockerfeller, but I know if I want it I'll have to pay.

There is a pair of 67 DF wheels on E-Bay but they are 'dated' and I thought 67's weren't dated on the exterior by the valve stem hole and the DF should be upside down??????
