I knew the codes and details when I bought the wheels three years ago, but this thread has been running a long while now and to be honest I don't remember. All I can tell you is that they are original early 15x7 Rally II's. But here's an updated pic- same wheels and tires but with new paint and trim on the car.

I also replaced the rear with a 12 bolt 3.07 posi from a 72 GTO and added a sway bar a few months ago. No change to the stance but the new combination is perfect- on the street it hooks better than my 06 GTO. I haven't tried it at the strip... yet. Pic was taken before the rear end swap.

A fellow PY member just posted this link in the 68-69 GTO tech section. It provides specs for all of the stock Pontiac wheel codes. Figured it would be a good reference here.
http://www.pontiacserver.com/wheels.html#rally2

Based on the chart I am sure that my back spacing is 4.75"
