Name those wheels!
Hello all,
I'm new to the site and to MOPAR as well. I recently acquired a set of wheels and tires for what I THINK will fit a MOPAR. The pictures will be the best description, all I can say is that the wheels are 15" in diameter, have a 5 bolt pattern, and a distinctive center cap design. Also, the tires are Goodyear Polyglas; they look quite old, perhaps 30 years plus... that may help as well. I appreciate the help!

How come I can see through the rims on the driver side but not the passenger side?
And to the origanal question, as mentioned, they were on trucks and C's from the early 70's. By the late 70's they were on Cordobas and maybe the Chargers as well.

Never really looked but once you mentioned the years I looked closer and I see the difference. The older ones do look a little like AMC centers. I have a set of AMC 14"ers and they look just like these.

15x8" Wheels for my 1979 Magnum GT E58 w/T-tops:
Code-W24) HD 15x8 Super Coupe Rallye Wheels
with bright Trim Rings and correct year Chrome Centers
1978 Dodge Super Coupe with W24 Wheels:
1978-79 Magnum GT 15x7" Wheel code-W27 comes with that center:
The 1979 Chrysler 300's came with the same type of rims shown in the first post but were not stamped steel like those, they were stamped aluminum! Also was an available option on the 1979 Dodge Magnum's.
Here is a different rim with the same center but different cap. they had many other caps that fit these centers:
FYI:These rims are for sale, PM me for info on them if interested? (SET OF 4)
Here is a wheel from a 1970 Chrysler 300 Hurst with the same rim but slightly differend cap on the same center!
You see this wheel type for quite a few years, they were very popular! Good looking rims! In 1979 they added a trim ring that covered the slots and the centers were replaced with very thin aluminum ones. Here is a picture of them for the 1979 300:
