Van rally wheels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I came across some rally wheels on a van. they are not as wide as truck rallys. are they worth picking up? I may go get them if any body needs some

**leddzepp** · 01-03-2015, 05:10 PM

They work great up front if you are running staggered tires.

**Ironhorse** · 01-03-2015, 05:11 PM

Not totally familiar with the van rallys but do know enough that they are somewhat hard to come by and are sought after by those who want to run "bigs and littles" for tires. I would think most likely they are 5 lug 15 x 7,
don't think the van rallys ever came in a 6 lug. I would pick them up to flip or trade if you can get them at a decent price. Not sure what would be tho.

1968aj · 01-03-2015, 05:50 PM

thanks I will go get them

Andy4639 · 01-03-2015, 06:29 PM

Are they worth a bunch of money...no! Are they worth having...yes.

the vans where 7" wide wheels where the later model truck rally where 8" wide. As stated if someone you know is looking for that type of look then they maybe worth getting.

cdowns · 01-03-2015, 06:49 PM

For $10-$15 each they are worth pickin up and reselling for a profit of $10-$20 each

**Joesjunk** · 01-03-2015, 07:17 PM

Actually van rally wheels are 6 1/2" wide. They have little to no value around here anyway. Heck 8" rally's don't seem to have any value anymore either

**bowtie72** · 01-03-2015, 07:26 PM

They make great wheels for trailers.

REEDS 72 · 01-03-2015, 07:28 PM

They have some value in my book I still like them just my two cents.

I run 6 lug 15 x 8 truck rally on my 65 and I like your two cents

Some guys running drop spindles and want rallies run these for clearance issues on some drop spindles.

great info . looks like I will have some of all three if they are not gone tomorrow

Willie Makeit · 01-04-2015, 12:03 AM

vans = 6 1/2"

trucks = 7" & 8"

They are pretty hard to come by around here. 6 1/2" in front and 8" on rear is a killer look on a bagged truck with stock inner front fenders. the 6 1/2" wheel tucks perfectly.

**leddzepp** · 01-04-2015, 02:46 AM

If it is a 72-80 van I would be more interested in seein if it had a tilt column...

PanelDeland · 01-04-2015, 01:28 PM

I would love to have some 6 1/2 or 7 wide in six lug.
I'm running 8's now but would love to even out my track width some with them.

**Ironhorse** · 01-04-2015, 01:37 PM

Did the narrow van rally wheels come with a 6 lug variation? Curious, never see the van rally wheels of any sort at the swap meets I've been to. Are they that scarce in any variety?

Willie Makeit · 01-04-2015, 02:01 PM

considering GM made probably 20 trucks to every 1 van, I'd say the 6 1/2" rally wheels can safely be called scarce.
