Which models came out with 15x7 & 15x8 Fuchs

Just wanting to know which cars came out with 15x7 & 15x8 Fuchs.

I have them on my SC, but am told they were not a wheel size available in the SC. I also heard they are quiet sort after wheel, with people doing circuit racing, as a smaller wheel gives them lower gearing, yet they are quiet wide.

I've got them on my 69 S/T copy... Pretty sure they came off an SC though.

I thought all SCs came standard with 15x6 & 15x7. Maybe the 8s were a factory option.

Didn't (rear) 15x8s come standard on MFI Carreras and Carrera 3.0?

Someone told me they were an option for SC's here in Australia, but someone also told me I couldn't get my girlfriend pregnant if we did it standing up...

They were optional since 1974. In 1989 the series was 6&8X16. Interestingly the factory never offered wider than 6" in 16" for the front.

he must have meant standing up for your right to party and you're right to be free and drive off in the sunset with the P-car whenever she tells you bout some bun in the oven you didn't order...
