Goodyear G78-15 - Should be F78-14 DOT seems to be CUO 038 M87 Stamped between the stud holes - 1977 wheel M87 and 9 to the left of the stem and an 8 to the right of the stem. - Sept 8, 1977 build date 369917 stamped in the rim above the stem. - Should have 7 digits 369917?

Probably a GM part number. Now I am ticked off! I can't EVER get a break but this was my error and should have known this stuff before I bought it. This guy is a BIG mopar guy and I took his word for it. I obviously didn't try to put it on the car and could easily check the bolt circle. I'll do that in a little bit. I am sure it'll be 4 3/4 probably.. LOL Gonna make a phone call in the morning! Okay you were right, the part number was 3699117 and there is a chrysler insignia to the right of the 8 on the rim so it is chrysler and does appear to be 4.5" bolt circle I believe.

Is that the volare with ground effects etc? That definitely is the diff. in height that would make the nut go on a bit easier. I do have about 3/8" of thread but that's it. Let me know what you think. I may try to get my $ back tomorrow but I would guess it's highly unlikely. Quote: Quite a bit of difference between a 14 and 15" SS.

I guess I need to find out if that's what it's for or not. I guess for now I'll keep it until I can replace it.

Question: If I had the 6" stud, does that mean I had space saver? Can you extrapolate what size wheel/tire my car originally had from this?

I'm trying to determine if my car came with 14's or 15's from the factory....your note above implies I would have had 14's? Was there a 15" space saver?

Was there a 15" space saver? e bodies never came with 15" space saver spares. The 15" space savers came in later and larger cars like the cordoba. They were g 78 15 goodyears.The f 78 14 goodyears came in aspen and volares.
