My buddy picked up a car with 15x8 mopar steel wheels on the back. It has been parked since 76. These wheels have a pentastar and 70 date code. They are 4 lump and stamped with an H on the back side (facing the axle). What are they? I don't have pics at the moment

They sound like the PERFECT wheels for YOU Gary. I just couldn't help myself, everyone knows how you love black steel H-wheels. If it wasn't me it would have been another A12 owner that said it if I hadn't

15X8 that has to be a truck wheel they sure would look good on you A12 Bee IMO

Dodge Ramcharger before they went to the later big bolt pattern. I think they were 76 only. Yes they look good on A12s. Been there done that

Found this on another Mopar site:

"I also found out some more facts on the 15x8 wheels from another source. I was told they were on 74-79 pickups also,(besides the ramchargers and traildusters) 2 or 4 wheel drive, but they all did not have them only the ones that came with the larger tires"

Now that's a SLEEPER to beat ALL sleepers

Bill, you should put a couple securely placed fake filled PAPER A&P grocery bags in the back for the total effect

I have set a set of 15x8 (3821550) wheels in my garage. They have 3 lumps and the H is stamped in the front. Yours don't sound like Ramcharger wheels to me. Did you measure outside lip to lip which would measure 8" on a 15x7 wheel?

The fact that they have 4 lumps is what throws me for a loop. I have a set of the 3 lump 15x8s myself


Restoring a car to look "only" as good as the factory made it is like getting a boob job for your wife and having the doctor make them two different sizes to seem more natural
