Before I start this 12" rotor/B-body spindle conversion, can anyone tell me if the 15" Rally II rims fit within the 12" rotor & caliper? Just don't want to get the conversion done, and then find out I need new rims after the fact. Thanks.

The 15X7 Rally IIs came on the B-body cars, so yes they will fit.
I put the 15X7s on my own car with B-body spindles/12" disc conversion, so I know they work.

Sweeeeeeet. How do you like the 12" fronts? I just finished the rear disc, and it made quite an improvement. Hoping for a bit more stopping power. You know... LA traffic and all that shiz.

The car ('64 Tempest) stops like crazy, mine are manual (no power booster).
 Of couse before the conversion it had drum brakes up front. But I can compare it to my '64 GTO which has 11" front discs from a '69 GP and big 11" Ford drums out back (has a Ford 9" rear end), also manual brakes. The Tempest definitely stops better, even with the 9-1/2" stock rear drums.

Cool beans.
When is the next time you're running 1/4 miles up in Lancaster/Palmdale? I've been meaning to get up there for the Pontiac drags, but househunting & work keeps piling up.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
