I have a set of 5 rally wheels with a B stamped next to the valve stem, a KH stamp, and a GM stamp, opposite each other near the bolt holes. I’ve yet to see a date stamp or size stamp. I know 67 is either DG or DC, however I’ve seen in the archives that B may have been used in early 67. My 67 is late May built. Doubtful they are original to my car. Any additional information would be greatly appreciated. Gary

Gary,
This article might help explain a few things...
My wheels for his survey were listed in Wendel's chart under body build date K28 (June 28, 1967)
hope this helps...

Mark; Very informative article. Fills in the blanks. Thanks. GaryComment

Mark; Thank you again for the information you sent. This morning I found the date 8/66 and the 15x6 JK stamp. All 5 are for the early 67. Not original for my May 67 build but functionally correct. I won’t be having the car judged. Now I’ll be comfortable ordering a set of redlines. Those are correct for my car based on build sheet. GaryComment

Good deal, Gary,
Perhaps as "scarce ?" as the B-stamp '67 Rallys are (you pretty much have to have a September-built car for those) - maybe you could sell what you have and get a set of DCs or DGs ? As the article says, they were also used on other Chevies - although some may have been 14" rather than the 15s for Corvette..
I'm pretty sure the 3 of mine in Wendel's article were original to my car...can't remember what the other two were ?thx,

Gary:
My 67 was built on Jan 23. Bought it off a used car lot in 1978. All five of my wheels are stamped "DG". Your "B" stamped wheels are quite rare.1967 Coupe 427-390 w/airComment
