Thanks guys! I'm new to the 67 chevelle and kept getting conflicting info. about the size wheels. Just bought a matching numbers L78 and the seller kept saying it needed 15x7 rallys to be correct. They were installing 4 wheel disc brakes so I stopped that. I think the guy told me it was a power drum brake car and all 67 SS396 cars had rallys. I will have to dig a little deeper...

Non-power drum brakes were std. on all '67 Chevelle SS 396, with power drum optional, both using 14x6 std wheels with A3 6 code or a variant of that code.

Optional disc brake SS 396 cars, non-SS ordered with PW7 white stripe F-70 and PW8 red stripe F-70, came std. with 14x6 DG code "Disc Brake" wheels. Disc Brake, or Rally Wheels as they became known as, were not available as a separate option in '67, only with disc brakes.

Only the SS cars with disc brake got the 14x6 "DG" rally wheel.....all other 1967 Chevelles ordered with disc brake got the 14X5 "DA" rally wheel.


ThanX
