I know it isn't the same car but both '70 Superbirds that I restored came with rallies from the factory and both cars also still had their original spare intact. Both were steel wheels.

Ironic; surely the use of a steel wheel on a rallye wheel equipped car was done for cost savings and now, 40 years later, the 450 steel wheels are worth substantially more than the rallyes! Dave

Where do you think most people got there 450 steelies? By buying people's spare tires.

So.... if your car came with hubcaps then would the car have "450" wheels all the way around or was the "450" strictly a spare only?

Corndog,
For a B body you would get four body color 450 wheels with dog dish caps and a black 450 spare.
This is how my 70 Hemi GTX is optioned.
For an E body you would get four body color 450 wheels with dog dish caps and a space saver spare.
For a TA Challenger you would get four black 450 wheels with dog dish caps & trim rings and a space saver spare.

Not to change any subject, what is this 15 inch spare for 2944169 H in lug area. I think it's a 69 or 70 but not sure. I haven't looked it up any where.
